Keelah Wilson begins her sixth season as an assistant coach with The University of Texas-Pan American women's basketball program.

Wilson enters her first season under newly-named head coach Denny Downing after spending five seasons under former head coach DeAnn Craft. Wilson reunites with Downing after spending a season under Downing's direction at Collin Community College.

The sixth-year assistant coach is responsible for assisting with recruiting, organizing game file exchange, on-court coaching and coordinating summer camps. A former standout in the low post, Wilson assists with the overall development and coaching of the Lady Bronc post players.

Prior to joining the UTPA women's basketball program, Wilson spent two seasons as an assistant coach at Collin County Community College District, a NJCAA Division I program. In her two-year stint with the Lady Cougars, Wilson was responsible for working with both the forwards and low-post players and played a heavy role in the CCCCD recruiting program.

Wilson was a standout student-athlete for The University of Texas at San Antonio women's basketball program from 1998-00 and played a pivotal role in the success of the Roadrunners. In her final season, Wilson nearly posted a double-double (points-rebounds) after she averaged 14.8 points and 9.1 rebounds per game en route to earning first team All-Southland Conference laurels. She also set the program's single-season blocked shots record (41) and was cited as the team's Most Valuable Player.

Wilson earned a bachelor's degree from The University of Texas at San Antonio in 2000.
