Two Thunder student-athletes earned recognition as the school's fall recipients of the Jack Swartz Award. Sophomore Sara Bakke of the Thunder women's soccer team was Wheaton's female Jack Swartz Award recipient for the fall and senior football student-athlete Corey Kennedy was Wheaton's male honoree. Bakke is an Elementary Education major and Kennedy is a Business/Economics major.

The Jack Swartz Award is given to one male and one female athlete from each conference school at the conclusion of each of the three athletic seasons (fall, winter and spring). The honor is given by the CCIW and each of the eight schools in the league picks their own representatives. The winners from each school must earn a varsity letter in his/her sport and have a grade point average of at least 3.50. The award is named after the late Jack Swartz, a former Wheaton student-athlete, coach and athletic administrator who served as the first Commissioner of the CCIW until his death in 1998.
