Stanley Newell Galloway (July 1, 1915 – October 14, 2000) was an American football coach and athletics administrator. He served as the head football coach at Southeastern Louisiana College—now known as Southeastern Louisiana University—in Hammond, Louisiana for 14 seasons, from 1951 to 1964, compiling a record of 84–42–4. Galloway was the commissioner of the Gulf South Conference from 1971 to 1979.

Galloway was born in Blond, Louisiana. He attended Lyon High School in Covington, Louisiana.

Galloway began his coaching career in 1939, at Donaldsonville High School in Donaldsonville, Louisiana. In 1941, after two years at Donaldsonville, he went to Hammond High School in Hammond. A year later, he moved on to Bogalusa High School in Bogalusa, Louisiana, succeeding Arthur Morton as head football coach. He also coached basketball and track and field at Bogalusa until 1951, when he left to become the athletic director and head coach at Bolton High School in Alexandria, Louisiana. After a brief tenure at Bolton, Galloway left the school before coaching a game to become the head football coach at Southeastern Louisiana College, succeeding Ned McGehee.

Galloway died on October 14, 2000, at North Oaks Medical Center in Hammond.
