Dalhousie University presents our PepsiCo Athletes of the Week for the week ending Sunday, January 5, 2025.
Ally MacNutt, Curling
Third-year skip Ally MacNutt is this week’s female PepsiCo Athlete of the Week.
Ally led the Tigers to their sixth AUS curling title since 2016 this past weekend. The skip made key shots during the round robin to finish 3-1, heading into playoffs seeded second. The MacNutt rink then knocked out UNB in the semifinal before calmly dispatching STFX in the final 7-2.
