Aaron Smith has resigned as head coach of the Portsmouth High School boys basketball program after two seasons, the Daily Times reported. Smith, a longtime assistant before his promotion for the 2024-25 season, compiled a 22-win record and guided the team from a 7-15 mark prior to his tenure. The program will begin its search for a new head coach ahead of the 2026-27 season. The resignation was confirmed in an inquiry by the Daily Times.
