Charlie Bair to Illinois Wesleyan
Illinois Wesleyan picked up a quality commitment on Sunday afternoon. They landed Glenbard South post Charlie Bair. The 6’5” power forward has good strength and mobility. Bair plays physical on the interior and finishes well through contact. On the block uses a sweet hook shot to score. Tough post defender. Runs the floor well. He was a consistent presence throughout last spring and summer for Mercury Elite 17U. Great glue guy for a team at the next level!
We caught up with Bair to get the low down on why he chose Illinois Wesleyan.
“Coach Rose and his staff have really made me feel like a part of the Illinois Wesleyan family ever since I first met them back in August. They really made the school feel like a great fit for me and I appreciate all they have done throughout my recruitment. A huge thanks to Mercury Elite and the Ruggles family for helping me throughout the process as well.”
Bair spoke about how he will fit in with his new program.
“Coach Rose emphasizes on how hard the players work and how they play for each other rather than themselves. I feel that this is key to having a successful team and I already utilize these aspects in my game.”
