• Yohe followed the most successful season in program history to date with a dominant 2020-21 year, setting a program record for wins in a season while winning both the Crossroads League Regular Season and Tournament Championships for the first time in the same season. 
• Yohe led the Knights to a 21-3 overall record going 8-1 in Crossroads League play, and dominated the All-Crossroads League Team headlined by Erin Oleksak's second consecutive Player of the Year honor. Yohe was named the CL Coach of the Year in 2020-21, and coached All-CL First Team players in Sydney Genatempo, Chloe Ulmer, Siera Stuart, and Allie Schlom.

• Yohe guided Marian to its finest season in history in 2019. Marian finished 20-3-3 overall, won the Crossroads League Tournament and finished national runner-up at the NAIA Tournament. The Knights defeated Indiana Wesleyan in the CL Tournament final and won three games at the NAIA final site, including a dramatic win in penalty kicks over No. 1 William Carey. The 20 wins are a single-season program record.

• Yohe led the Knights to the second round of the conference tournament in 2018, facing multiple challenges on the year after facing nine ranked opponents on the year. 
• 2017 was a historic season for the Knights as Yohe guided the program to its first NAIA National Tournament berth. Marian finished 16-3-4 overall and was runner-up in both the regular season and Crossroads League Tournament to Spring Arbor.

• Yohe had the Knights knocking on the door for the program's first NAIA Tournament appearance in 2015 and 2016.
