Edward Aloysius Dillon (November 1, 1882 – January 30, 1935) was an American college football player and coach as well as a judge.

[1][2] He was the son of Edward Dillon, who was considered "one of the best printers in New England,"[3] and Mary Ann Beasley.

[8] Sports columnist Lawrence Perry later wrote that Dillon was "as intrepid a ball carrier, as game a defensive back as ever wore orange and black stripes.

He does not himself enter into the interference or the push as much as some other quarters, and Princeton's plan of play does not give him the kind of forward passing to do as mentioned above in the case of Jones.

"[17]As a senior in 1908, Dillon was the captain of Princeton's football team, but he missed almost the entire season on account of injuries.

[22] During World War I, Dillon served as a pilot with the rank of ensign in the U.S. Navy's Naval Aviation Corps.
