Alumni Mustangs Spring into Action
Hundreds of alumni Mustangs are currently playing in college and the pros—and 20 more from the Class of 2026 committed to NCAA programs. Here are some alumni highlights from the spring sports season:
2 Alums Sign ECHL Contracts
Zach Bookman ’20 and Jake Percival ’21 both inked contracts with ECHL teams in April. Zach joined Indiana’s Fort Wayne Komets, which are affiliated with the NHL’s Edmonton Oilers.

He tallied his first professional assist in Fort Wayne’s final game of the regular season and added a goal in four playoff games.

Alumni Netting Goals in MLS
Ousseni Bouda ’19 and Shakur (Shak) Muhammed ’21 are two of the greatest soccer players in Millbrook Mustang history. Now they’re showing out in Major League Soccer (MLS).
A forward on the San Jose Earthquakes since 2022, Bouda is having the best year of his career. In 15 games (13 starts) in the 2026 season, he’s netted five goals—including his first career brace on April 19 against Los Angeles FC:

Over in Nashville, Shak Mohammed made his MLS debut on April 18. The forward made the most of his debut, scoring his first MLS goal late in Nashville SC’s 2-0 win over Atlanta United.

With a record of 10-3-1, Nashville sits atop the Eastern Conference. The team acquired Shak from MLS NEXT Pro squad Orlando City SC in the offseason, giving him an opportunity to shine on the big stage.
Jazmin Mejia Makes All-Freshman Team
In just one year at Millbrook, Jazmin Mejia ’25 made an oversized impact on the softball diamond, rewriting the Mustang record books and leading the girls to the 2025 WNEPSGSBA Championship game. Unsurprisingly, she’s already making a name for herself at UNC Greensboro, earning Southern Conference All-Freshman Team honors.

Jazmin and the Spartans won the Southern Conference Championship Tournament, earning a trip to the NCAA Regionals. After defeating Clemson in the first game, they lost to No. 16 Georgia and then were eliminated by Clemson. Jazmin went 2-for-3 with an RBI in the final game.
LAX Alumni Make Centennial Conference First Team
