Wake Forest head men's soccer coach Bobby Muuss announced the 2015 recruiting class, which includes three players with youth national team experience and three who have played for MLS academy teams.

Committing to Wake Forest were Jack Harrison, Carter Richardson, Brad Dunwell, Tater Rennhack, Sam Raben, Roman Martin and Harrison Gregory.

"I would like to thank Jay Vidovich, Ryan Martin and Dane Brenner for putting together another top-ten recruiting class to start my era at Wake Forest," said head coach Bobby Muuss. "It is a very talented, versatile and competitive group. They are very smart soccer players and all of them will just continue to develop. We expect a number of these guys not only to contribute right from the get-go but to push to start. With all but one starter returning from last year and this incoming group, the future is extremely bright."

The class includes four midfielders (Harrison, Dunwell, Martin and Gregory), one defender (Raben), one forward (Rennhack) and one goalkeeper (Richardson).

Wake Forest's 2015 recruiting class was ranked the ninth-best in the nation by Top Drawer Soccer. This marks the sixth straight year that Wake Forest has had a top-10 nationally ranked class including 2010 (No.3), 2011 (No. 8), 2012 (No. 1), 2013 (No. 9) and 2014 (No. 8).
