"I felt that we needed to make a change for the continued development of the program," said Michigan head coach Joe McFarland. "Kirk and Mike have served the Michigan program well -- both as coaches and as student-athletes -- and we wish them continued success in the future."
Trost, a teammate of McFarland at Michigan in the mid-80s, spent 23 years on the Wolverine coaching staff. He was the 2005 NWCA Assistant Coach of the Year.
Kulczycki, an All-American and four-time NCAA qualifier for Michigan, was on the Wolverines' coaching staff for six years.
Michigan became one of the nation's top programs with Kirk Trost and Mike Kulczycki on staff, finishing as high as second at the NCAA Division I Championships in 2005. But the Wolverines are coming off three straight seasons of finishing outside the top 10.
A national search is underway to replace Trost and Kulczycki.
"We plan to actively seek out top candidates to complete our coaching staff," said McFarland.
