The NOAH Jaguars have a lot to be excited about coming into the 2021 football season. James Ballinger has spent many years with the NOAH program as a coach, but this will be his first season as head coach of the varsity football team. Ballinger has several returning players on both sides of the ball and a solid offensive and defensive line. One player to look for up front is Hunter Dressler (6-3, 300, Jr.). The right guard and defensive tackle begins his third season of football and is excited to get the season started. Playing with this group of seniors is the most enjoyable part for Dressler. 

“I enjoy the leadership that the seniors bring to the table,” said Dressler. “They will push you through any situation.” 

A baseball player for 11 years, Dressler is now focused on football and helping this team to the playoffs.

“I would really enjoy going to college and continuing my football career, but if not that I would go get a job and get on my own feet,” said Dressler. “I am really looking forward to playing Lighthouse this year, last year we won 21-20 in the regular season and lost to them in the playoffs.” 

When he has some down time, you can expect to find Dressler hitting the weights in the gym.
