Courtney Peay joined the TIU women’s basketball staff as assistant coach in September of 2020. She was promoted to head coach in the spring of 2022, and later added Senior Women's Administrator to her title as well.

"Coach Peay is a natural leader and possesses all the skills I look for in a Coach at TIU," stated Athletic Director Heather Logue.  "She challenges young women to be all God has made them to be and is an encouragement to everyone she encounters.  It is an honor and privilege to have her a part of the coaching staff at TIU."

A native of San Antonio, Texas, Peay attended Nyack College in New York and graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Youth and Family Studies in 2013 and a Master’s Degree in Divinity in church development in 2018. Coach Peay comes to Trinity after serving the past five seasons as an assistant coach at her alma mater. 

Peay played four seasons on the court for the NCAA Division II Warriors and was a member of Nyack’s historic 2009-2010 women’s basketball team that won the Central Atlantic Athletic Conference (CAAC) championship and became the first Nyack team to qualify for an NCAA postseason tournament in school history.

During her career, Peay also became involved with Athletes in Action, a sports ministry focused on equipping athletes, coaches, and sport-minded individuals to grow in their relationship with Jesus and multiply their life into others. Her involvement saw her travel on two different tours to help spread the word of Christ in Asia and Kenya.

An ordained minister, Peay also is an abstract artist in her free time.
