New Zealander Hugh McCutcheon, coach of the gold medal-winning US men's volleyball team in Beijing, will leave the women's national team to become the women's coach at the University of Minnesota.
It is unclear if McCutcheon will remain with the US women through the 2012 Olympics in London.
According to USA Volleyball, McCutcheon will fulfil his current obligations with the national team and will "join the Gophers as their full-time head coach at a mutually agreed-upon date in the future".
