Prince Elmer "Pete" Shotwell (August 17, 1893 – February 8, 1978)[1] was an American football coach.

His 1923 Abilene Eagles team won all of its 12 games as well as the state championship in one of the strongest defense performances ever, allowing only one touchdown by an opponent during the whole season.

After a short stint in the collegiate ranks at Hardin–Simmons University, Shotwell coached at Breckenridge High School, where he won a state championship in 1929.

[2] Shotwell has been honored by the Texas Sports Writers Association, the Texas High School Coaches Association, the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics and the Texas Sports Hall of Fame in 1971.

The originally named "Public Schools Stadium", the 15,000+ seat venue built in 1959 that serves as home stadium for Abilene HS and Abilene Cooper HS, was renamed “Shotwell Stadium” in his honor.
