“After a major disagreement with a decision made by the USOC regarding a restructuring of my coaching duties, I have decided to step down from the head coach position of the US Women's National Team in Team Handball. I will be working until April 20th for the USOC to finish the NETHC season, to help Mike (Cavanaugh) during the National Championship and to help with the WNT transition. Finally, I might reconsider a reassignment of my duties with the USOC. The USOC will have until April 20th to come up with a proposal.”
