Wellington’s Bannister brother duo, Dusty and Colton, are ready to take on the field together for the spring season. The brothers spend a lot of time training and preparing each other for the season ahead.
Both Dusty and Colton spent the offseason lifting and working out outside of the field, along with some hitting practices in the cages.
“My favorite part is going on our Arizona trip in the spring to prepare and get ready for the season,” Colton said.
With big goals from the duo, they are really looking to lead Wellington to a state title.
“Some goals for me are winning, hosting, and making it to Salina and bringing home a state championship,” Dusty said. “My goals are to make it to and win a state championship,” Colton said.
While trying to take all the moments in, getting to spend time with each other has been the most rewarding thing to both boys.
“It’s definitely cool just being around each other,” Dusty said. “We are with each other a lot and we grow a lot together.”
After high school, Dusty plans to play football at Independence Community College, and Colton is still figuring out his path of academics and athletics.
