LAFAYETTE – Louisiana Soccer announced the additions of five new members to the squad for the 2019 season, completing the Class of 2019's early signing period.  The Ragin' Cajuns added two women from California, one from Texas, one from Mississippi and one from Florida, as the Ragin' Cajuns look to strengthen the squad going forward across all areas of the pitch. 

Rachel Sutter, 5'8", F (Lodi High School, Lodi, Calif.): Sutter brings experience across the pitch, having played several different positions at a high level across her career.  She played her club soccer for the San Juan Soccer Club, a part of the Elite Clubs National League, and she was a key cog in SJCC winning the 2017-18 Northwest Division Championship.  While at Lodi High School, she was named to All-Team Tri-City Athletic League following both her freshman and sophomore seasons.

Karleen Bedre, 5'6", F (Norco High School, Norco, Calif.): Another versatile player, Bedre has been successful at every level she has played at, including being a member of the Arsenal FC club soccer in the ECNL and a part of Norco High School's successful program.  She has been named to her high school All-Conference and All-Academic teams and is the top goal scorer in Norco High School history.  Bedre was a part of three ODP West Region Championships and has been named Offensive MVP at Norco High School.

Wren Blanchette, 5'3", F (Cleburne High School, Cleburne, Texas): Yet another woman who played her club soccer in the ECNL, Blancette was a part of elite Solar Chelsea and has been a four-year starter at the varsity level at Cleburne High School.  Named Johnson-County Newcomer of the Year following her freshman season, Blanchette has twice been named First Team All-District and twice named Second Team All-District and All-Country.

Olivia Gelpi, 5'8", MF (Our Lady Academy, Bay St. Louis, Miss.): A force in the midfield, with a high engine that allows her to be a force in the midfield, Gelpi should help Louisiana connect the backline with the final third while maintaining the formation's shape.  She started at the varsity level for five years, making her debut during her eighth-grade year, and she has played her club soccer at Gulf Coast United.  Starting the conclusion of her freshman season, Gelpi was named to the All-District Team four-straight seasons and brings a load of experience to the Ragin' Cajuns midfield.

Brhyde Camron, 5'5", D (Bishop Verot Catholic High School, Fort Myers, Fla.):  A member of GPS West on the club level, Camron is a physical defender who is athletic as well and will mark some of the top attacking forwards the Sun Belt Conference has to offer.  She is a two-time Defensive Player of the Year at her high school, and she was a part of a Bishop Verot side that reached the High School Final Four.
