The season was impacted by the coronavirus pandemic. On March 12, it was announced that the 2020 NCAA tournament would be canceled due to the pandemic.[2] Clemson University suspended all events until April 5, 2020.[3] On March 17, the ACC cancelled all spring athletic activities and thereby ended the softball season.[4] The Tigers finished the season 19–8 and 5–1 in ACC play.
