Tar Heels Born, Bred and Wed
Posted Jul 23, 2015
Kaylie McCraw and RC Orlan met their freshman year as undergrads at UNC and had their first date the following summer at a Richmond Flying Squirrels baseball game. It was fitting, since RC was a relief pitcher for the Tar Heel baseball team under Coach Mike Fox. A few months after Kaylie’s graduation in 2013, RC surprised her with a proposal at the Old Well under the guise of taking a Christmas card photo there.
