Fay attended Northwestarn High School in Detroit, Michigan, before enrolling at the University of Michigan. He played at the halfback and quarterback positions for the Michigan Wolverines football teams from 1931 to 1933.
In October 1931, Fay gained national media attention after scoring two touchdowns in Michigan's 21–0 win over Princeton in the first meeting between the two schools in 50 years. The United Press report on the game noted: "Stanley Fay, hard-running 175-pound halfback from Detroit, was the hero of Michigan's triumph scoring the first touchdown on a 50-yard run from a fake placement kick in the second period and clinching the contest with a seven yard dash around end for a second score in the final period."
