In her first three years at Wells, Primmer helped the Express increase their win each season with a 9-7-1 record in 2016 for the most since the 2002 season.   The Express also saw a marked improvement on the offensive end of the field. After posting a second-best program mark of 81 points in her first season as head coach, Wells recorded 116 points with 45 goals in the 2016 season for a program best. Primmer's team also succeeded in the classroom, coaching multiple academic all-conference student-athletes and one CoSIDA Academic All-Regional recipient.

The Red Dragons claimed the SUNYAC Championship in women's soccer following a 13-5-3 overall record in 2013.
