2011:
Season stats
Wilson entered the fold as a key player in Northern Colorado's attack as a sophomore as she saw jumps in pretty much all of her numbers due to both increased playing time and improved skills ... The outside hitter finished third on the team in kills (233) while playing in all 31 matches and 102 total games ... Wilson's big jump in production can be traced to both an increase in total attacks and an improvement in hitting percentage ... In 2011, she attempted more than 300 extra attacks and increased her hitting percentage (.157) ... While improving on her offensive numbers, Wilson also notched 102 digs, 12 assists and 28 blocks in her second season ... Right from the start, it was clear Wilson had improved from her freshman campaign as she notched double-digit kills in two of her first three matchs after accomplishing the feat just once as a freshman ... Arguably her best game as a Bear came in a tough road loss to Baylor where she posted a career-high 15 kills while notching five digs and two blocks ... In an Oct. 27 match on the road against Sacramento State, Wilson came oh-so-close to her first career double-double -- posting nine kills and a career-high nine digs against the Hornets.
2010:
Season stats
Saw her role gradually increase in the early part of the schedule before being called on big time in late September after junior starter Breanna Williams was lost for the year with a leg injury ... Appeared in all but four of Northern Colorado's 31 matches in 2010, including 89 games ... Posted a solid first-year line with the Bears, slamming down 119 kills on .115 hitting, dishing out seven assists, getting to 44 digs and stonewalling 31 blocks ... Her 119 kills were the fifth most among all Northern Colorado players ... Got a small taste of NCAA Division I volleyball in the early going and fared well ... Twice had eight kills in a reserve roll -- once at home against South Dakota (Sept. 3) and in a neutral-site game against Portland (Sept. 11) ... Williams went down in the Bears 3-2 win at Idaho State (Sept. 18), and Wilson started 13 of the Bears final 17 matches ... She established a career high with 13 kills in the Bears' impressive 3-1 home victory against Montana and had at least six kills in nine matches overall.
