NEWTOWN, Pa.— THe Middle Atlantic Conference office today released its weekly honors for the first week of the 2026-27 women's basketball season. With an impressive double-double in a season-opening win, Eastern forward Madeline Wylie claimed her first MAC Commonwealth Player of the Week honor.

Wylie, a sophomore from Bordentown, N.J., scored 18 points, grabbed 16 rebounds and blocked three shots in a 68-54 home win over Lancaster Bible. All three were career-best numbers. She made 8-of-12 from the floor and was 2-for-3 from the foul line. Wylie averaged seven points and six rebounds per game last year. 

She started the new week with a 19 point and 11 rebound effort in a win over Cairn on Monday night. 

Wylie is the first Eastern player to win a MAC Weekly honor since the Eagles moved into the MAC Commonwealth in 2020. 

The Eagles are at Delaware Valley University on Friday night.
