Under Wilson’s guidance, the Red Storm set school records for wins (15) and shutouts (12), while claiming the first BIG EAST Regular Season Title in program history. For their efforts Wilson and her colleagues were honored as the 2015 BIG EAST Coaching Staff of the Year.
"We are excited to welcome Taylor to the St. John's Women's Soccer Coaching Staff," said Stone upon Wilson’s hiring. "I was always a huge fan of hers during her playing days. I have recently become as impressed with her reputation in the college coaching ranks. She will undoubtedly prove to be a great addition to our program."
For the two seasons prior to her arrival in Queens, Wilson had served as the director of operations for the women's soccer team at North Carolina State, helping guide the Wolfpack through an incredibly competitive ACC.
Prior to her stint in Raleigh, the Rahwah, N.J., native worked as an assistant coach at Iona for the 2012 season. While in New Rochelle, Wilson helped the Gaels record their first MAAC Tournament appearance since 2009, as they finished 5-3-1 in conference action.
A midfielder for Seton Hall from 2008-11, Wilson ended her playing career as one of the program's all-time greats. As a senior in 2011, Wilson tallied four goals and six assists for 14 points, good enough for a spot on the All-BIG EAST Third Team. Her six helpers were the fifth most in school history for a single campaign, while her 14 points were good enough for 10th in program history. Wilson also registered 56 shots as a senior, the fourth-best single season total at Seton Hall.
A two-time BIG EAST Academic All-Star, Wilson was also named the BIG EAST Offensive Player of the Week and the SoccerAmerica.com Division I National Player of the Week during her senior year after scoring two game-winning goals in as many contests against Georgetown and Villanova.
With 12 assists for her career, Wilson is tied for fourth place on the Seton Hall all-time list.
