Lacey watched the Seattle Storm win their second championship in 2010. She also played for the Canberra Capitals in the WNBL. She did not return to the WNBA for the 2011 season.
Lacey was hired as head coach of the Marshalltown Community College women's basketball team in February 2012 after former coach Larry Roberts was released from his coaching duties. The Tigers finished the year with an 11–17 record. Lacey led the team to an 11–20 record in 2012–13, her only full season as head coach. She resigned effective 1 July 2013, after her then-fiancé T. J. Otzelberger accepted a coaching position with the men's basketball program at the University of Washington. Otzelberger is currently the head coach of the Iowa State Cyclones men's basketball. The two were married on 1 June 2013 in Milwaukee.
