The Hurricanes were led by nineteenth-year head coach Katie Meier and played their home games at the Watsco Center as members of the Atlantic Coast Conference.
During the win streak, they won their early season tournament, the Miami Thanksgiving Tournament, and defeated a ranked Mississippi State team on the road in the ACC–SEC Challenge.
The team could not carry their momentum from non-conference play into the ACC schedule as they lost four of their first five games.
The team declined an invite to the inaugural WBIT, ending their season.
They received an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament where they were the ninth seed in the Greenville 2 Regional.
