Salina Post has learned from Athletic Director Ryan Mortimer that John Darrow has resigned from his role as head boy's basketball coach at Minneapolis.

Darrow, who will be concluding a 30-year coaching career, spent 24 seasons working in Minneapolis, leading the girl's team for 15, and the boys for the last nine.

During his run at the head of the boys' program, Minneapolis posted an overall record of 75-114 but surged to three straight winning seasons from 2018-2021, earning a top-three league finish in each of those campaigns.

Darrow will finish out the school year teaching high school algebra and physics but plans to retire this spring.
