RUSTON – Vice President and Director of Athletics Ryan Ivey announced Monday afternoon a change in leadership for the Louisiana Tech women's soccer program, relieving Steve Voltz of his head coaching duties.
 
Voltz first arrived to Ruston in 2020 as the lead assistant coach for the adjusted 2020-21 COVID-19 season and was named the interim head coach in 2021 before rising to full-time head coach the following season.
 
"We are grateful for the hard work and dedication that Coach Voltz has given to our student-athletes and our soccer program over the past six years," Ivey said. "After evaluating the direction of the program, I believe that a change in leadership is necessary at this time.  We remain committed to providing our student-athletes with the support and resources they need during this transition, and to position our soccer program for future growth."
 
A search for the next head coach of the women's soccer program will begin immediately.
