ROUND ROCK, Texas -- Leandro Ferreira, Kristian Princ, and Bridge Mwambukiri each earned first team honors and led seven LeTourneau men's soccer players on All-SCAC teams, as the conference announced its season award winners on Thursday during the conference tournament in Round Rock.
Ferreira earned All-SCAC first team as a midfielder, Mwambukiri at forward, and Princ at defender. Colton Chalker was selected for the All-SCAC second team as a forward and was also named to the All-SCAC freshman team. Chalker was joined by Edson Camara Martinez as the second YellowJacket on the All-SCAC second team. Sammy Shmorgun and Zach Parris round out the All-SCAC selections as honorable mentions.
All-SCAC teams were voted on exclusively by the league's head coaches and sports information directors.
A sophomore from San Antonio, Texas, Ferreira broke out in conference play with three braces, all coming at home. He leads the YellowJackets posting 22 points this season, with nine goals and four assists this season. Ferreira is the first LeTourneau men's soccer player to score nine goals since 2011.

Princ has also earned two SCAC Defensive Player of the Week awards, first on September 8th, and again on October 12th. Princ was a key piece on a defense that allowed just 1.06 goals per game and seven shutouts.
Mwambukiri, a sophomore from Houston, Texas, earned his All-SCAC nod as a first-team selection after scoring six goals and registering two assists on the 2026 campaign. Mwambukiri scored his first career hat trick in the first half of a 6-1 win over Hendrix. He added three game-winning goals to his season and earned his first SCAC Offensive Player of the Week on October 12th.

Parris played a mostly defensive role for a YellowJackets squad that allowed just seven goals in conference play.
A sophomore from Fresno, California, Shmorgun earned his second career SCAC All-Conference honorable mention after being recognized his freshman season. He led the team with 1,396 minutes and was a key part of a defense that earned seven shutouts and allowed under ten shots per game.
