ISU soccer coach Wendy Dillinger will not have her contract extended by Iowa State and will no longer be the Cyclones’ head coach the Iowa State athletic department said in a news release Sunday.

Current ISU assistant coach Tony Minatta will act as head coach during this week’s Big 12 Championship event in Kansas City, Mo., where No. 4-seeded Iowa State is set to face fifth-seeded Baylor.

In six years at Iowa State, Dillinger compiled a 48-58-11 overall record and a conference record of 11-40-4.

This season is the first trip to the Big 12 Championship for the Cyclones since the 2007 season.

A search for Dillinger’s replacement will begin immediately.

When reached for comment, Dillinger declined at the moment, but agreed to an interview with the Daily on Monday.
