Coach’s comment: Nolen has already established himself as one of the most exciting young playmakers in Pennsylvania’s Class of 2028. The Jersey Shore quarterback brings athleticism, speed, and big-play ability to the offense, while also having the versatility to contribute at safety.
Pauling put together an outstanding 2025 season, producing 2,441 total yards and accounting for 27 touchdowns while throwing just two interceptions. His production earned him First Team PHAC honors as an athlete and Second Team All-State recognition at athlete.
At 5-foot-9, 170 pounds with 4.59 speed, Pauling can create problems for defenses with both his arm and his legs. His ability to extend plays and make things happen in space adds another dimension to the Jersey Shore offense. He also plays baseball and carries a 3.7 GPA.
Already a two-year varsity starter with two high school seasons still ahead of him, Pauling has valuable experience for a player his age. After an All-State sophomore campaign, he enters 2026 as a dynamic player to watch for Jersey Shore and one of the top young athletes in Pennsylvania’s Class of 2028.
