Ashley Johnston is entering her seventh season as the head coach of the Lady Coyotes. She brings a wealth of experience and a proven track record to the College of Southern Nevada. Prior to joining CSN, Johnston led the Lady Jets of Northern Oklahoma College to a 32-24 season, finishing fourth in the Region 2 Conference. Before her tenure at NOC, she spent a year at Polk State College in Winter Haven, FL, competing in the Region 8 Conference.

Johnston's coaching career began at Trinity Valley Community College (TVCC) in Athens, TX, where she started the softball program in 2008. Over eight years in the DI Region XIV conference, she compiled an overall record of 260-247. In 2013, after four years of building the program, she led TVCC to a school-record 33 wins and qualified for the National Tournament in St. George, Utah. The team was also the 2013 regional runner-up for Region XIV. In 2014, the Lady Cardinals posted a 31-win season, narrowly missing a return to the National Tournament. Johnston's success earned her national rankings, finishing 2013 ranked 14th and starting the 2014 season ranked 12th.

Before her time at TVCC, Johnston was the head coach at York College in York, NE, leading the Lady Panthers to a fourth-place conference standing and a second-place finish in the conference tournament. She began her coaching career as an assistant at Paris Junior College in Paris, TX, where she helped lead the Lady Dragons to their first-ever Region XIV tournament appearance, finishing third. She then served as the interim head softball coach at College of the Desert in Palm Springs, CA, where the Lady Roadrunners placed third in the Foothill Conference.

Johnston is a native of West Monroe, LA, where she played for the West Monroe Lady Rebels and won her first 5A State Softball title in 1998. She played in the Region XIV conference while attending Bossier Parish Community College, graduating with an Associate's Degree in 2003.

Sam Silver joins the Bushnell softball coaching staff for the 2025 season. Silver had a spectacular career as a player for the Beacons on and off the field. As a pitcher, she finished her career ranked in the top-ten all-time in nine different categories and ranks fifth all-time for wins in program history. In 2023, Silver was named the winner of the NAIA's Dr. Leroy Walker Champion of Character Award, one of the organization's highest annual honors. She was Bushnell's first recipient of any NAIA major award.

Silver has been coaching and giving private lessons for many years and most recently served as an assistant coach at Springfield High School. She has also been a head coach for the Diamonds Fastpitch 16u and 14u teams.

Much of Coach Silver's legacy lies in the impact she has had in the development of student-athlete mental health initiatives. This included the creation of Bushnell's student-athlete wellness program, providing a designated counselor to each athletic team, removing barriers to care and acting as a liaison between athletics and the counseling department.

During her collegiate career, she was also named the winner of the Gardepiey-Peloquin Outstanding Speaker Award and graduated with a 3.94 GPA in Communication. She went on to earn her Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and is pursuing her Associate License for counseling.
