The 2019–20 Stony Brook Seawolves women's basketball team represent Stony Brook University during the 2019–20 NCAA Division I women's basketball season. The Seawolves, led by sixth-year head coach Caroline McCombs, play their home games at the Island Federal Credit Union Arena and are members in the America East Conference.[1][2][3]

The season saw Stony Brook break program records for longest win streak, most wins under McCombs and most wins in program history.

Stony Brook earned the No. 1 seed in the America East Tournament for the first time. Stony Brook advanced to the America East Championship for the third time and was set to take on Maine, but the game was canceled as a result to the COVID-19 pandemic.[7] Stony Brook was named the America East Tournament champion due to being the highest seed remaining.[7][8]
