Wichita Collegiate High School junior Wesley Fair has played the sport of football for as long as he can remember. 

“I have played football my whole life,” said Fair. “I’m now a junior, Class of 2023.” 

For Fair, football is life. Playing the sport he loves with his teammates is his comfort zone. Being part of a team that works hard, yet still has fun with what they are doing is something special to Fair. 

“My favorite thing about my team and teammates is how we can joke around yet still get things done,” said Fair. 

As a sophomore last season Fair led the team in rushing with more than 1,771 yards and is on pace to have similar numbers this season. His abilities have caught the eyes of several recruiters across the state. 

“I’m trying to get recruited to play safety in college,” said Fair. “Right now, I play quarterback and safety for Collegiate. This season I have been trying to dominate the defensive side of the ball.” 

College is on his radar, and he hopes to one day make it to the big leagues. 

“After I graduate, I plan to play safety in college while trying to get a degree in business and finance. And hopefully have an opportunity to play in the National Football League,” said Fair. “In my free time I like to play basketball and hang out with my family.”
