“Loren Montgomery, Football, 1996-99

Loren Montgomery was a mainstay on the Northeastern State University offensive line during the program’s first years as an NCAA Division II member, an era when NSU held the winningest college football program in Oklahoma in the 1990s.  He concluded his four-year career helping guide Northeastern State in 1999 to the Division II playoff semifinals, a team that was inducted into the NSU Athletics Hall of Fame in 2021.  Following his graduation from Northeastern State in 2000, he worked for ten seasons in several coaching roles for the Jenks Trojans football team, which included working under legendary coach and 2017 NSU Distinguished Alumnus, the late Allan Trimble.  Montgomery went on to lead the Bixby Spartans, where he has guided them to ten state titles over the last 11 seasons, along with a state-record win streak of 58 games.  He has become the most accomplished large-school prep football coach in state history.  In 2023, Montgomery was named by the Northeastern State University Alumni Association as one of its Distinguished Alumnus.“

Bixby ended this past season with a 13-0 record and finished ranked at No. 1 in the final 2025 Oklahoma high school football rankings.
