Two days before the National Tournament was set to begin, the championship, along with all other NCAA events for the spring semester, was cancelled due to the Coronavirus outbreak.[1]
Regular season
The Commonwealth Coast Conference, following the general trend of other conferences, altered its standings away from the traditional win–loss–tie format. Three points were now awarded for a win, one point for a tie and no points for a loss. The new method used was a convoluted arrangement where a team's conference record would still be recorded based upon the standard NCAA format where wins and losses accrued in the 5-minute 5-on-5 overtime were included in the win column. However, the CCC tracked overtime wins and losses so that if a team won a game in overtime they would receive two points instead of the normal three while if a team lost an overtime game they would receive a point. Teams that recorded a tie would follow a more typical situation where they would receive one additional point for a 3-on-3 overtime win or a shootout win but would not receive any additional points for a loss in either case.
The formula for the points standings were as follows: Points = (wins x 3) + (ties) – (5-on-5 overtime wins) + (5-on-5 overtime losses) + (3-on-3 overtime wins) + (shootout wins)
