Chase Garcia ‘25 Bags 1,000th Career Point

VIth former Chase Garcia ’25 reached an important milestone in his high school basketball career on Wednesday, notching his 1,000^th career point on the road at Brunswick School. Garcia’s achievement helped the Mustangs remain undefeated to start the season, as they defeated the Bruins 58-40.

Millbrook Boys Varsity Head Coach Billy Thom noted that Garcia’s accomplishment is especially impressive, considering an untimely start to his career:

“It is truly an outstanding accomplishment for a high school basketball player to score 1,000 points or more in his career,” Coach Thom said. “Given the fact that Chase did not play games during his freshman year at his local high school due to COVID, this feat is even more amazing! It is a testament to his hard work and dedication—I can’t wait to see how he finishes his career at Millbrook before moving onto NYU!”

An All-NEPSAC (New England Preparatory School Athletic Council) honorable mention last season, Garcia will look to add to his points total in the remaining 21 games of the season—and hopefully in the playoffs!

After sweeping their Zero Gravity Prep Classic games over the weekend and then knocking off Brunswick this week, the Mustangs are 4–0. If Garcia and his teammates can keep that momentum going the rest of the way, they’ll look to compete for the NEPSAC Class B tournament championship in the spring.
