NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts senior forward Jen Wehner has been named the MASCAC player of the week as announced by the league offices on Monday.

It is the fifth time that she has collected the award this season. Wehner and the Trailblazers earned a pair of key victories to move up to second in the MASCAC standings.

Wehner averaged 25 points and 13.5 rebounds on the week while shooting an impressive 77 percent from the field. She began the week with a 21 point-13 rebound performance in a road win at Westfield. Wehner would follow that performance up with a season high 29 point, 14 rebound showing on senior day against Framingham State University.

Wehner ranks second in the conference in scoring and rebounding, while leading in blocked shots and field goal percentage. She is already MCLA's all-time leading scorer and rebounder.

MCLA will wrap up the regular season with a pair of road games this week as they look to continue their current winning streak. The Trailblazers will travel to Fitchburg State University on Tuesday before heading to Bridgewater State University on Saturday.

New North Adams Restaurant Approved for Liquor License

By Tammy DanielsiBerkshires Staff
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — A new restaurant on Main Street, a provisions shop and a convenience store all got the nod from the License Commission on Tuesday.
 
Siblings Colleen and Sean Taylor are expanding their cuisine empire yet again with the establishment of Main & Mill in the old TD Bank. They were before the commission to apply for an all-alcohol license. 
 
The building is owned by Ginko on Main Street LLC, which has granted 20 years exclusive possession of the property to Latent Builds as the developer. Jack and Suzy Wadsworth, behind Ginko, are development partners with Salvatore Perry and Karla Rothstein of Latent.
 
The bank closed in early 2021 and purchased by Ginko late that year. Plans for the property unveiled three years ago envisioned a restaurant, retail, a park and rooftop bar. 
 
The building's hosted some pop-up eateries and is currently under construction for the new restaurant. 
 
Colleen Taylor said the restaurant will be open seven days a week serving lunch and dinner, and be open early for coffee. 
 
"It's not going to be a very big restaurant. It's about the same size as Trail House, except for Trail House has a bigger patio, so about the same seating," she said.
