With no girls completion sanctioned by the Minnesota State High School League, she competed primary against boys during her scholastic career.

In December 2013, Shilson, a seventh grader competing for Maple Grove High School, picked up a varsity win by pinning Roseville's Conner Rohloff.[1] Shilson also received a forfeit victory against Dassel the following month.[2] Shilson did not compete in either the individual or team post seasons tournaments, the only year she failed to do so.

As an eighth-grader during the 2014–15 season, Shilson wrestled varsity matches at 106 pounds for Centennial High School.[3] In December 2014, she competed at the All Force Minnesota Christmas Tournament, where she went 1–2.

In 2017, Shilson became only the second girl in Minnesota history to qualify for the boy's tournament in wrestling. There she lost her only match 7–4 against Patrick Hesse while competing in the 106-pound weight class.[4] In the team sectional tournament earlier in the season, she went 2–1 but Centennial didn't qualify for the state team tournament.

In 2018, she dropped a 6–2 decision to Blake West and in 2019 she lost 6–2 decision to Zachary Silvis in her other two state matches, both at 106 pounds. During both those seasons, she finished as top wrestler in her section.
