As the third seed in the ACC Tournament they defeated Wake Forest in the First Round and Notre Dame in the Semifinals. They faced off against Florida State in the final and lost 2–1. They received an at-large invitation to the NCAA Tournament where they were a one-seed in the Clemson Bracket and earned home field advantage until the College Cup. They defeated Radford in the First Round, Columbia in the Second Round, and advanced in a penalty shoot-out over Georgia in the Round of 16. The Tigers faced second seed Penn State in the Quarterfinals and won 2–1 and advanced to their first College Cup in program history.[1] In the College Cup, Clemson faced Florida State for the third time during the season, and lost 2–0, to end their season.
