KYLE WAGNER, NORTH'S NEW FOOTBALL COACH: Lutheran North is proud to welcome back Kyle Wagner as its new head football coach. Wagner was North’s offensive coordinator when the Crusaders won the 2019 State Championship. He was the defensive coordinator for North’s 2017 and 2018 state semifinal appearances. He left North to accept a head coaching position at Ritenour and then Sikeston, but is happy to be back at home with the Crusaders.
“I’m thankful to take over one of the most prestigious and sought-after jobs in Missouri,” Wagner said. “I know Lutheran North and have deep relationships here and look forward to creating more."
Wagner, a Kirkwood high school standout, played football at Westminster College, where he received all-conference honors as a defensive back. He was a defensive backs coach at CBC, making state final and semifinal appearances in 2015 and 2016.
Wagner is in his 11th year of coaching. He has had more than 20 former players earn spots on collegiate rosters and will continue Lutheran North's reputation as scholarship high.
"You can still go anywhere from here," he said. |  |
