Kelly Orchard Has Three Offers
Kelly Orchard, a solidly built 6-9, 215 pound power forward/center from Bountiful H.S. in Bountiful, Ut., fought through some early summer injuries and competed at last week's adidas Big Time Tournament in Las Vegas with the Oakland Slam N Jam program.
Although a bit mechanical, Orchard is a big body who sets a mean screen. He is currently getting looks from several mid and high major programs this summer.

Orchard said he has been offered scholarships thus far by Colorado State, Boise State and UC-Santa Barbara. In addition to those programs, UMass, California and Stanford have also expressed interest in Orchard this summer.
Orchard averaged 10 points, 10 rebounds and four blocks per game as a junior at Bountiful H.S. He said he has a 3.6 GPA and scored an 18 on the ACT.
Although injuries forced Orchard to miss much of the NBA Players Association Camp and the entire adidas ABCD Camp, he did compete at the USA Olympic Festival in Colorado Springs prior to playing in the Big Time Tournament.
The Insiders Report will keep you posted on Orchard's recruitment in the coming weeks, so stay tuned.
