ENID, OK - Enid Public Schools selected two-time All American Oklahoma State University standout, first-round NFL draft choice, and two-time state champion coach Rashaun Woods as the Plainsmen varsity head football coach in January of this year.

Woods joins the EPS team after serving Oklahoma City Public Schools as the John Marshall High School head football coach since 2012. He led the John Marshall Bears from a winless program the season before he took the helm to an Oklahoma football powerhouse, including three district titles and a state championship in just six years.

“We are thrilled to recommend to our EPS school board Monday night Coach Rashaun Woods as our new Head Football Coach. His skill set, background, experience, expertise, and past accomplishments are all aspects that we feel will translate extremely well in leading our Enid High football program,” Superintendent Dr. Darrell Floyd said. “From all indications, he also has great relationship-building skills. He has been tremendously successful in his coaching career in taking programs with little or no success; then building them into championship programs.”
