You're on a rooftop and you throw one ball downward to the ground below and another upward.

Question:

You're on a rooftop and you throw one ball downward to the ground below and another upward. The second ball, after rising, falls and also strikes the ground below. If air resistance can be neglected, and if your downward and upward initial speeds are the same, how will the speeds of the balls compare upon striking the ground? (Use the idea of energy conservation to arrive at your answer.)
