Just a day after the Fourth of July, the Louisiana Ragin Cajuns had some fireworks of their own on the recruiting trail come courtesy of a commitment by Trey Fite.
Fite, an edge rusher out of Tatum, Texas, is currently rated as a three-star prospect by 247 Sports. He chose the Cajuns over Arkansas, Houston, Kansas State among others.
This put the Cajuns at seven hard commits for this recruiting class, six of which come from the Lone Star State.
Fite had recently visited the Razorbacks program, but it looks like he was more sold on the body of work that Billy Napier has put together since becoming the head coach for the Cajuns.

The third time was literally the charm for former Louisiana Ragin Cajuns track star Morgann Leleux.
The New Iberia native cleared 15 feet, 5 inches on her third and final attempt in the women s pole vault last night to finish second overall at the U.S. Track and Field Trials at historic Hayward Field in Eugene, Oregon.
Leleux failed to qualify at the 2012 Trials and finished fourth overall. Then in 2016, she served as an alternate for the U.S. team. But this time around she s secured her spot for the Tokyo Summer Games, which begins on July 23.

Leleux, the Ragin Cajuns and Sun Belt Conference record-holder in pole vault (15-1), easily made her first three jumps, clearing 14-3 1/4, 14-9, and 15-1 each on her first attempt before missing on her first two attempts at 15-5.
