Interview: Logan Welch and Laney Orr R.J. Reynolds HS Baseball Players

LOGAN WELCH—SENIOR—4 YR LETTERMAN—UNC COMMIT

2014 All-State and 2-time All-Conference selection, Welch is the ACE of the talented Demon

pitching staff. Welch heads into the 2015 season with tremendous opportunities. “Logan has

a chance to set every RJR pitching record covering the last 2 decades... but “those are just

numbers...Logan says he wants a state championship ring for the 2015 Demons!” To get that

ring, Welch(10-0 in 2014, 97 strikeouts and 1.58 ERA) must lead the Demons with dominating

pitching and a highly productive bat at the plate. Welch, along with the others Demon seniors,

must lead Coach Welch’s squad as a unit if they are to capture the first state title in RJR

baseball history.

LANEY ORR—JUNIOR—3 YR LETTERMAN—UNC COMMIT

Coach Welch hopes 2015 is a breakout year for Orr. “Laney is a freak athlete with unlimited

potential. If he stays healthy, he will help us in every way.” Orr has power, speed, arm strength,

and defensive skills that put him into a category with only a few high school players. The

Demons need Orr 100% healthy to truly make a run at the 4A state title
