    Former El Toro football player Noah Aguilar remembered as ‘great teammate and leader’
    • March 25, 2023

    Former El Toro standout football player Noah Aguilar was the victim shot to death in Mission Viejo earlier this week in a reported case that saw his roommate arrested on suspicion of homicide, Aguilar’s high school football coach said Friday.

    Former El Toro football coach Mike Mayoral said the 22-year-old victim identified in The Register’s reporting was Aguilar, who earned All-CIF and All-County honors for him as a senior in 2017.

    “Unfortunately,” Mayoral said in a text message, “it is. An absolute shame.”

    “Noah was a great teammate and leader,” said Mayoral, now an assistant coach at San Juan Hills. “Tremendously committed to Charger football. An All-CIF player who played the game the way it’s supposed to be played. A true warrior.”

    El Toro’s football Instagram account posted a tribute to Aguilar earlier this week.

    “He and his family were a big part of our ET family,” the post read, “our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and loved ones at this time.”

    Aguilar also played basketball at El Toro.

    Authorities told The Register that he was shot inside a home in Mission Viejo on Tuesday. Law enforcement later arrested Aguilar’s roommate, 22-year-old Michael Guy Levy, a sheriff spokesperson stated.
