DANBURY, Conn. - Each week WestConn Athletic select one female and one male student-athlete as the Wolves of the Week, recognizing their outstanding performances in their respective sports from the previous week. The honorees are announced every Wednesday. The eighth Wolves of the Week for their performances on the ice and turf are women's ice hockey junior Mackenzie Day (New Hudson, Mich.) and football senior Dylan Jackson (Monroe, Conn.).

Day helped WestConn win its first-ever varsity women's ice hockey game, scoring once and assisting on two other goals in the Wolves' 5-2 win against Massachusetts College on October 30.  Day also had an assist on the WestConn goal against those same Trailblazers the next day in a 2-1 setback on the road.  She assisted on both the go-ahead goal and the eventual game-winning goal in the Wolves win.

Jackson was 19-for-32 through the air for 235 yards with three touchdown passes and no interceptions, as the Wolves downed Juniata, 18-3, to keep their bowl hopes alive in the Landmark Conference.  Jackson completed passes to 12 different receivers, had touchdown tosses of two, four, and 26 yards, and also rushed for 23 yards against the Eagles.
