Hepple, a native of Nassau, Bahamas (St. Andrew's), led the Falcons in scoring in his senior season of 2009, with 10 goals and 21 points. He scored nearly half of BG's goals on the year, including game-winning markers against both Marshall and Florida Atlantic.
Hepple amassed his point total in just 12 matches, missing all of six contests and parts of two others due to injury. He tied for second in the MAC in goals per game (0.83) and was third in the league in goals, assists, points and points per game (1.75).
In conference games only, Hepple had totals of four goals and eight points, despite playing in just three of the Falcons' six matches. Despite missing half of the conference contests, Hepple tied for second on the league in goals and was sixth in points. He led the entire MAC in goals per game (1.33) and points per game (2.67) in league games only.
Hepple had three multiple-goal games on the season, including a hat trick against Dayton and two-goal contests in MAC wins over Buffalo and FAU. His totals of 10 goals and 21 points are the highest by a Falcon in four years.
Hepple finished his Falcon career with 17 goals, nine assists and 43 points in the Brown and Orange.
In addition to his BGSU experience, Hepple played in the USL's Premier Development League last season for the Bradenton Academics. In 14 matches he logged 890 minutes, registering two goals and two assists.
His crowning moment during the past PDL season occurred in the league division finals when his assist led to the match's only goal and Bradenton's advancing to the league quarterfinals.
Hepple burst on the scene as a teenager, following trials with Southampton and Wolverhampton Wanderers in the English Premier League, before going on to play domestically for Bears FC in the Bahamian New Providence Football League. He comes to the Pumas following trials with Portsmouth.
Hepple left the Bahamas to play college soccer in 2006, earning All-MAC honors twice during his BGSU career.
Hepple is a full international for the Bahamas National Football Team. He played for the Bahamas U-17 and U-23 teams before making his senior debut in World Cup qualification match against Dominica as a 15-year-old. Hepple has since earned 12 caps, seven of those in World Cup qualifiers.
"Cameron really caught our eye with his speed at the national quarterfinals in Laredo last summer," said Pumas owner Robin Waite. "He'll be a tremendous asset to what was already a very good team."
In 2009, the team's first season, the Pumas won the Northwest Division, and also qualified for the U.S. Open Cup. The Pumas open the 2010 season on May 15.
