London, ON – While we have recognized all of our Mustangs varsity teams, there is another Mustangs team that deserves recognition for the great work they've done this season. that being our Mustangs Athlete Student Council (M.A.S.C.) & Mustangs Care teams.

This group is made up of over 100 Mustangs student-athletes that come together to work on a wide array of projects, initiatives and community involvement tasks throughout the year while always supporting and advocating for all student athletes at Western.

"I feel very fortunate to have such an outstanding group of student athletes involved in our Mustangs Athlete Student Council (MASC) and Mustangs Care team." said Bonnie Cooper, Athlete Services Coordinator with Western Sports & Recreation. "These student-athletes volunteer their time to provide support and social opportunities for student athletes as well as organizing outreach in our local community.  It's a great leadership opportunity and also creates such an amazing sense of belonging and I would encourage student athletes regardless of year of study, to get involved!"

In the 2025-26 season the team was led by Mustangs Athlete Student Council President: Clarissa Sladek (Rowing), Mustangs Care President: Megan McCormick (Field Hockey) & Mustangs Talk President: Robin Henshaw (Women's Volleyball). This group,?along with an extended group of the executive team handled several tasks from events, communications, leadership and development and campus connections among many other tasks.



The 2026-27 team has already been selected and includes incoming M.A.S.C. President Alex Haylock (Football), Mustangs Care President Clara Fava (Cross Country/Track & Field) and Mustangs Talk Preisdent Rowen Uy (Swimming).
