Diane Cummings Turnham began her Blue Raider career as an assistant women's basketball coach more than three decades ago and saw her career evolve into the University's top women's athletic administrator. Cummings began as Blue Raider coaching basketball under three head coaches: Larry Joe Inman, Jim Davis and Lewis Bivens. She assisted in the recruiting of Hall of Famers Kim Webb, Jennifer McFall and Tawanya Mucker.
When Title IX came into being, she took over the new volleyball program and laid the groundwork for years of success. 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.
