Jason Lutz is in his 10th year as a varsity sailing coach at CBA in 2024-2025.

Lutz's team is coming off a tremendous 2023-2024 school year, in which the Colts won the program's third state championship, the spring fleet championship, BBYRA Invitational, and most impressively, qualified for the 2024 National Championship. CBA was one of 20 teams from across the country to qualify for the Nationals in Charleston, SC, where the team finished 12th. 

During his time as a CBA coach, the Colts have continued to make their mark as the top sailing program in the state. Since 2016, CBA has won three state championships, six league championships, and six prestigious BBYRA Invitational Rooster Flags. In addition, the Colts qualified for the 2017 and 2024 Doublehanded National Championships. CBA has also had three Singlehanded National Championship qualifiers, four New Jersey High School Sailor of the Year winners, and 37 all-state selections under Lutz's direction. 

A graduate of CBA and the College of Charleston, Lutz has been coaching sailing for the last 15 years. He has also remained active in local, regional, and national competitive sailing, most recently winning the 2024 International Lightning Class North American Championship.

Coach Lutz serves on a number of youth sailing committees, including the Interscholastic Sailing Association (ISSA) National Board and the Club 420 Class National Board. He also acts as the Assistant Director of the New Jersey Interscholastic Sailing Association (NJISA), which governs high school sailing in the state.
