After a 0–12 start, ASU's first wins as a program finally took place February 4, a 5–3 victory over the University of Denver that included its first ever hat trick, a three-goal effort from junior Amber Galles.

After ending the season with a 2–1 win over Denver, ASU prepped for the WWCHL tournament, having earned a bid by being the host team.

Goaltender Jordan Nash-Boulden was the lone net-minder for ASU all year long, playing 1,499 minutes and facing 1,000 shots for a save percentage of .921.

The season began with two games against Grand Canyon University, marking the first meetings between the two teams in GCU's inaugural campaign.

While the season's opener resulted in a tie,[3] the Sun Devils stormed back the next night to take a 4–1 victory.

[6] After the wins over CSU, the team hit a rough patch, dropping six straight games between the WWCHL Showcase in Colorado and two home losses and Midland.

[8] ASU wrapped up its home-heavy regular season with two victories over Denver,[9] clinching a berth to the WWCHL playoffs to be held at the end of February in Fremont, Nebraska.

[10] The season ended in Nebraska at Sidner Ice Arena, where the Sun Devils lost to Lindenwood-Belleville and Midland in the WWCHL tournament.

[13] With two games under her team's belt, head coach Lindsey Ellis chose to name four alternate captains, having waited until after the season began.

Of the four, two were unique selections in the college hockey landscape, in a goaltender (Jordan Nash-Boulden) and a freshman (Kat Jones).

In the October 25th game against CUAA, freshman forward Kat Jones recorded the second hat trick in program history, scoring three goals in the 8–1 win.

On February 8, Kat Jones won the game with a shorthanded goal in overtime, the lone tally in a 1–0 victory.

[22] After an extended stretch on the road to begin the regular season, the team returned back home for the next six games, sweeping both league-newcomers Utah[23] and cross-town rival Grand Canyon.

With a 13–4 record under their belts, the Sun Devils traveled up to Salt Lake City, Utah, for the 2020 WWCHL Playoffs and made quick work of CSU[27] and host Utah with 4-1 and 3-1[28] wins, to advance to the conference championship game for the first time in program history, where they looked to topple the Colorado Buffaloes, also for the first time in program history.

Beginning in 2018–19, the ACHA switched to an entirely computerized system with again weekly rankings being released, albeit not always on Tuesdays.
