Pietie Coetzee-Turner is the associate head coach for Wake Forest field hockey in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, and joined the program on January 27, 2023 after three seasons as an assistant coach at UMass. While at UMass, the Minutewomen recorded consecutive double-digit win seasons in 2021 and 2022 and reached the Atlantic 10 Championship game.
Since arriving at Wake Forest, she has been part of a period of notable progress for the program. In 2023, the Demon Deacons earned regular-season wins over top-10 opponents Michigan and Syracuse, and the team had multiple All-ACC selections while setting a program record with 17 players named to the All-ACC Academic Team. In 2024, Wake Forest's younger players supplied most of the team's scoring, with freshmen and sophomores accounting for 62 of the team's 81 points. Four underclassmen scored more than eight points, freshman Lauren Storey posted 17 points, and sophomore Mia Schoenbeck earned All-ACC recognition for the first time.
