Ken Niumatalolo will not return for another season in 2023, the school has announced.
The decision comes after Navy lost a two-overtime heartbreaker to Army yesterday.
"Our sincerest gratitude to Coach Ken for what has been a distinguished and impactful legacy at the Naval Academy," athletic director Chet Gladchuk shared in their release.
"Navy football flourished for many years under his leadership. He will forever be remembered for the influence he has had on the lives of those who played for him. We all have great respect and appreciation for his 25 years of service to the Academy."
