The Eagles were led by seventh-year head coach Joanna Bernabei-McNamee. They played their home games at the Conte Forum in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts as members of the Atlantic Coast Conference.

The Eagles started the season with three straight wins over non-Power 4 foes before losing their first game of the season against Harvard 70–78. They followed the loss with three more wins against non-Power 4 foes. They then traveled to the Bahamas to take part in the Baha Mar tournament. There they lost to eighteenth-ranked Ole Miss and Oregon State to leave winless. They returned to participate in the ACC–SEC Challenge, where they lost to Arkansas by eleven points. They followed that losing streak with an ACC win against Virginia and three wins against non-Power 4 opponents. After that run, the ACC schedule began in ernest and the Eagles lost their next five games. Four of those games were against ranked opponents, but all the losses were by double digits. They rebounded with back-to-back ACC wins against Miami and Syracuse. The Eagles went on to lose seven of their next eight games, with their only win coming against Clemson. They suffered three ranked losses during that stretch. They finished the regular season winning two of their last three games, defeating SMU and Virginia Tech in overtime but losing a re-match with Syracuse.

The Eagles finished the season 16–18 overall and 6–12 in ACC play to finish in a tie for twelfth place. As the twelfth seed in the ACC tournament, they faced thirteenth seed Syracuse for a third time this season. The regular season series finished 1–1 but the Eagles triumphed 76–73 in the tournament to advance to the Second Round. They lost 78–71 in the Second Round to fifth seed and fourteenth ranked North Carolina. They received an at-large bid to the WBIT and were an unranked team in the St. Joseph's section of the bracket. They lost to fourth seed Villanova 76–70 in the First Round to end their season.
