It can be achieved in two steps.
1. Use the function @DateTime.weekday(Date). Pass Simple Date in the format YYYYMMDD. This function will give number for the day. If it is Sunday-1 Monday - 2 ..... and Saturday - 7.
2. Use decision table to match the name of the day with output of the above function.

steps:-
1.)convert your given date to Big Decimal by using @dateTimeToBigDecimal("20170331","Date",tools)
2.)now use @weekday() function as @weekday( @dateTimeToBigDecimal("20170331","Date",tools))
Note:-@weekday function will take bigdecimal as ita parameter and return integer respective to weekday.
ex-sun-01,mon-02,tue-03....
3.)param.a=@weekday( @dateTimeToBigDecimal("20170331","Date",tools))
4.)a=6
