Prior Lake High ends girls' basketball season after racist note found in player's bag

Head Coach Demondi Johnson also resigned in the wake of the incident

The Prior Lake High School girls' basketball team will forfeit its final game of the season and its first-round playoff match after a sophomore player discovered a racist note in her gym bag, school board Chair Michael Nelson and Superintendent Teri Staloch wrote in a note to families Thursday.

Lakers head coach Demondi Johnson also announced his resignation on Twitter.

"The decision made about the remainder of the girls' basketball season demonstrates swift action and a strong stance that racism is not acceptable and that there are consequences for actions," Nelson said.
