As they mature their vocal cords mature also. Then they can hit the lower notes their genetics will allow.

Why did I lose my low notes?
Some of this range loss is because singers generally become more tense the longer they sing, so the folds can't fully relax back to sing the lowest notes of your range. This can be fixed by zeroing in on not pressing too much with your voice, which is a full process unto itself that will take many years.
Why can I sing high notes but not low?
Your larynx, or “voice box”, houses the vocal cords and has several groups of muscles that raise or lower it when you swallow or yawn. But many singers raise their larynx unconsciously when they sing high notes. And if the larynx is too high on your high notes, it can actually cause you to strain.
Why can't I sing properly anymore?
Since vocal folds (vocal cords) are the main body part responsible for our voices, any injury or change to the vocal fold can compromise your ability to sing. ... Vocal folds aren't the only body part that makes us capable of singing. Injuries to the throat or mouth can also prevent you from singing.
