e-mail Dave at Dave.Wilson@QueensU.ca	Dave Wilson - Head Coach Wilson continued his work with Canada Basketball again this past summer - this time as an assistant coach of the U19 National team that competed in the World Championships in Bangkok, Thailand. The team finished fourth in the world, their best finish ever. Heading into his 28th season as head coach (29th with the program), Wilson feels that this recruiting class will make a significant impact on the program. "We have improved our size, our scoring ability, and most importantly the competitive level we bring each and every day," commented Wilson. With Assistant Coach Tim Orpin on sabbatical this year after 24 years with the program, there is no question life will be different in and around Queen's basketball. "I'm sure he will continue to provide me with solid advice as always - it just wonÕt be on a daily basis this year," said Wilson. In the last 9 years, the team has competed for three OUA East Championships, won two OUA East Division Championships, one OUA Championship, and has made two CIS Championship appearances. Queen's truly is a program that combines the best of both worlds - first rate academics and first rate basketball. Noted for his commitment to his athletes both on and off the court, Wilson feels that it is essential for athletes to know that the entire coaching staff is willing and able to help with matters relating to basketball, school, and life in general. Continuing to improve his coaching credentials, Wilson has accumulated an impressive background in addition to his tenure at Queen's: Assist. Coach, National Jr. Team - 4th place finish, World Championship (Thailand - 2009) Assist. Coach, National Jr. Team - Silver Medal, All Americas Championship (Argentina - 2008) Head Coach, World University Games Team - 7th Place finish (Thailand, 2007) Assist.
