Clarkson Golden Knights women's ice hockey seasons
« 2013–14 2015–16 »

The Clarkson Golden Knights women's ice hockey program represented Clarkson University during the 2014–15 NCAA Division I women's ice hockey season. The Golden Knights entered the season as the defending ECAC regular season and national champions.

The Golden Knights successfully defended a share of their conference regular season championship with a win over co-champion Harvard on the last day of the season. They were then defeated in the ECAC semifinals by Cornell. Despite this, they still earned their third straight at-large bid to the NCAA tournament, where they were defeated in the quarterfinals by Boston College.

Offseason

Coaching Changes

Both co-head coach Shannon Desrosiers and assistant coach Matt Kelly departed in the offseason, leaving Shannon's husband Matt Desrosiers as sole head coach and as the only coach on the staff. To replace the departed coaches, Britni Smith, a former standout at St. Lawrence, and Meghan Duggan, a former standout at Wisconsin and a member of the United States national team, were hired as assistant coaches.[1]
