Honouring the Man who shaped Trent University Athletics
PSB Wilson had a momentous impact on Trent University during his 36-year tenure as Athletics Director.
As the longest serving athletics director at any university at the time of his retirement, Mr. Wilson established varsity soccer, hockey, basketball, football, rugby and the squash program. Two years after he took his position as athletics director, 67 percent of students were participating in athletics.
Not only has PSB left a lasting legacy at Trent, but he has also made great contributions to University athletics across the province and to the Peterborough community where he served on City Council and through his continuous volunteer efforts.
To honour the legacy of PSB Wilson at Trent, the PSB Wilson Fund for Athletics & Recreation was created to ensure his philosophy of “sport for all” continues to this day.
