She was twice named to MVP of the DFW metro area.
LaPlante is a 5-9 midfielder from DeSoto, Kan. where she has played against some of the state's top youth teams. She committed to OBU two years ago. Coaches are expecting her to be a strong attack-minded player that will do exciting things for the team.
Morgan is a 5-6 defender from Anchorage, Alaska who is expected to be a quick player who can control the center of the field. Coaches saw her late in the recruiting season but have expressed great pleasure she still signed with the team.
