The Tigers finished the season 6–8–3 overall and 2–7–1 in ACC play to finish in fourteenth place. They did not qualify for the ACC Tournament and were not invited to the NCAA Tournament. Their six overall wins were the lowest since 2012 and tied for the lowest in the time since Radwanski has been head coach. Their two conference wins were also the lowest since 2012. By not earning an invite to the NCAA tournament, they broke a streak of qualifying for ten consecutive tournaments.
