LO AND BEHOLD: BELL LIVING HIS DREAM

BOWLING GREEN, OH- When Logan Bell was just a freshman at Lisbon’s David Anderson High School, you knew the potential was there for something special.  What we didn’t know at the time was just how special one young man from small-town America could be.

Years later we know that the Blue Devil Boomerang Ballplayer was just as valuable in and for his community as he was on the playing surface.  Logan continued a long-living legacy that began generations before he was even born of contributing to his community in all ways possible.  Involvement was in the lifeblood of his family’s DNA and continues to and through this day.

Logan could always be found somewhere on a roster through high school.  Football, basketball, and of course baseball were the ones he was involved in, but also being able to settle in the crowds and cheer from the seats for his friends and classmates letting them know their value- and his appreciation for their skills and talents as well.

That’s Logan.  Always there, forever positive, and a one-in-a-million man.

Nowadays, Logan finds himself living the dream he fought for so hard through those days at DAHS but sees his journey through a different lens.  One of which he’ll continue to bet on himself because others have as well.  Although he never seems to show the pressure of carrying those dreams with him, Logan plans for success and carries those very plans out the same way he does everything else- with a smile on his face.

We caught up with the Falcon flamethrower to discuss baseball, his family, and so much more.
