She had bogey-free inward half of four-under-par 34 in the morning.
Miss Wilson won by two strokes from Robert Gordon University student Laura Murray whose scores also soared in the wind. Laura had a 71, which included an outward half of two-under-34, in the first round and a 79 in the afternoon.
Claire-Marie Carlton (Stirling University), Claire Hargan (Mortonhall) and former Scottish title-holder Fiona Lockhart (St Regulus) all finished with an aggregate of 151.
