Grafton Native Makes the Cut at New England Revolution’s Rev Girls Final Audition

The New England Revolution soccer team selected three new members to add to the 2013 Rev Girl squad, Thursday night during a heated Rev Girls final audition at the Ri Ra Irish Pub in Providence, RI.

Rachel Sibley, a Grafton native, beat out a tough competition of ten hopeful women during a three round audition which consisted of Revolution trivia, a Q&A session about each finalist and crowd giveaways to judge fan-interaction skills.

A slew of local celebrity judges including WPRI Rhode Show host Will Gilbert, Providence Journal reporter Jenna Pelletier, 2012 Miss Rhode Island of the Miss America Organization Kelsey Fournier and PRO-FM radio personality Jessica Schiano, helped in selecting the newest members to the Rev Girls squad. Comix at Foxwoods comedian Bill Simas, served as the evening’s emcee.
