Starting the season 2-0 for the first time in program history, the Dutchwomen enjoyed another notable first, defeating the Princeton Tigers. The Dutchwomen also set a new program record with 25 power play goals, as senior forward Stefanie Thomson scored seven power play goals, also a program record.

As a side note, team captain Maddy Norton would lead the team in assists (18) and points (21). In 2019-2020, the Dutchwomen finished 9th in the ECAC, their highest finish in the league. They finished the season at 5-24-5 overall, and 5-13-5 in conference play.
