Coach Wilson loves to compete and continues to be a competitive person with a top 10 finish in the 2000 C.R.A.S.H.-B's masters division and many head race top finishes as well. I like to compete. I feel it keeps me sharp and in touch with my team as we train together. We have all the ingredients to make this a very good team. In Coach Wilson's career prior to coaching rowing he owned a small group of convenience stores in the Northeast.
Every day is different and the interaction between people is the most important thing that happens.
