game.

Don Raleigh

Track&

Field

1984-1987

From 1984-87, track and field star Don Raleigh was a four-time outdoor and three-time

indoor NAIA national qualifier.

Raleigh owned the Oklahoma Intercollegiate

Conference, winning titles in all four of his

years.

Don was a three-time

All-American in the high jump, twice finishing as

national runner-up.

Don’s personal-best of 7-feet stood for many years as the school, conference and district

record.

Don’s success began long before his time as a Ranger. He was a four-time state qualifier during his prep days at Claremore

Sequoyah, winning a state championship as a senior. His best of 6’8 remains a school record.

Raleigh was also a standout in the classroom. He

graduated from Northwestern with a

Bachelor of Science in Natural Sciences,

finishing with a 3.72 GPA. He holds a

master’s degree from Oklahoma State and is currently working

toward his doctorate.

Don’s career path took him into the education field. He coached high school basketball, track and football from 1988-2000, helping lead Southlake Carroll to the 1993

Texas 3A State Football Championship.

Raleigh transitioned from the classroom into administration in

2002 and has spent the past six

years as Superintendent of

the Pryor (OK) School District.

He was named 2012 OASA District 6 Superintendent

of the Year.
