Diane Miller

Part of the longest tenured coaching staff in Division I softball alongside Revelle and Sippel, Diane Miller has helped the Huskers turn into one of the most dangerous offenses in the NCAA over her 14 years at NU. 
 
After orchestrating an offensive revival at Colorado State, which included setting 44 conference records and 14 school records for the Rams, Miller has produced an encore performance in Lincoln. Nebraska’s offense has exploded under Miller’s watch, as the Huskers have set more than 40 school records entering her 15th season in 2023. 
 
Miller, who heads the offense and oversees the catchers, has helped Nebraska to a pair of NCAA Regional titles, a trip to the Women’s College World Series and two Big Ten titles.
