Hall of Fame
One of the best middle distance runners in the nation during her collegiate career, Pam Raglin, as she was known during her time at EKU, was a 13-time Ohio Valley Conference champion.
The 1984 and 1985 OVC Women’s Outdoor Track & Field Athlete of the Year and a 1984 Freshman All-American in the 1,500 meters, Raglin still holds the conference mark for best 800 meters time with a 2:07.71 in 1986. She claimed the OVC outdoor championship in the 800 meters (1985, 1986); 1,500 meters (1984, 1985, 1986); 3,000 meters (1985, 1985); and the 5,000 meters (1984, 1985) during her career. Raglin’s time of 4:16.84 in the 1,500 meters during the 1986 season is still the EKU women’s outdoor record.
Also in 1986, Raglin was selected as the OVC Cross Country Runner of the Year. She won the three-mile championship with a time of 16:33, 11 seconds better than the runner up.
Raglin also excelled at indoor track, winning the OVC title in the 800 meters and the mile in 1985. In 1986, she was named an All-American in the indoor mile.
Raglin continued her stellar track career after leaving EKU, qualifying for the 1988 Olympic Trials in the 1,500 meters.
A native of Paris, Ky., Raglin Andrews was inducted into the Kentucky High School Athletic Association Hall of Fame in 1998.
