She assisted in the recruiting of Hall of Famers Kim Webb, Jennifer McFall and Tawanya Mucker.

Turnham was then promoted to Assistant Athletic Director for Compliance, and then to Associate AD/Senior Women's Administrator. She has chaired several women's committees for the Sun Belt Conference and in 2009 was named to serve on, and then chair, the prestigious NCAA Women's Volleyball Committee.
