Minnesota has extended head coach Niko Medved’s contract by one year after a solid first season leading the Golden Gophers.
The extension also includes a slight raise for Medved, who completed his first campaign at his alma mater. The move reflects the program’s confidence after an encouraging start to his tenure.
Medved Continues Building at Minnesota
Medved’s return to Minnesota carried added significance given his ties to the university, and his first season provided a foundation for the program moving forward. The one-year extension gives the Gophers additional continuity on the bench as Medved continues to guide the team.
No further contract details were announced beyond the added year and modest salary increase.
