"We are excited to kick off the fourth season of Stonehill Women's Hockey, as the inaugural First-Year class of our program enters its Senior year," said Mirasolo. "Our schedule, once again, includes non-conference contests against opponents from all four other leagues, giving our players a chance to demonstrate the growth of our program at the national level. The NEWHA continues to improve each year, and we look forward to highly competitive games across league play. We hope to see plenty of fans in the stands both at Bridgewater and Warrior Ice Arena, where we will play four games this season."

The Skyhawks will open their campaign with an exhibition matchup against Boston College at Conte Forum on September 20. Regular season action begins October 3–4 with a home series against Syracuse at the Bridgewater Ice Arena.

Stonehill's early schedule includes a road trip to Saint Anselm (Oct. 11) sandwiched between home series against Sacred Heart (Oct. 17–18) and a second single contest against the Hawks at Warrior Ice Arena (Oct. 24). The Skyhawks wrap up October with a road series at LIU (Oct. 31–Nov. 1).

November features two consecutive home-and-home weekends against Assumption (Nov. 7–8) and Franklin Pierce (Nov. 14–15), followed by a home series against Post University (Nov. 21–22). Over Thanksgiving weekend, the team heads to Nashville, Tennessee to compete in the SMASHVILLE Women's Collegiate Hockey Showcase. Stonehill faces reigning NCAA Division I national champion Wisconsin (Nov. 28) and Mercyhurst (Nov. 30) to round out the trip.

The first half of the season concludes with a road series at Saint Michael's (Dec. 5–6).

After the holiday break, Stonehill kicks off the New Year with five of its first six games on the road, starting with a two-game set at Princeton (Jan. 2–3). A home-and-home with Saint Anselm (Jan. 9–10) breaks up the stretch, followed by two away games at Sacred Heart (Jan. 16–17).

The Skyhawks return to Bridgewater to host LIU (Jan. 23–24) before wrapping up January with another home-and-home against Assumption (Jan. 30–Feb. 1).

February features the final stretch of the regular season, beginning with a split two-game set versus Franklin Pierce (Feb. 6–7), including one game at Warrior Ice Arena. Road contests at Post (Feb. 13–14) and a home series against Saint Michael's (Feb. 20–21) round out the regular season.

All eight teams in the conference will qualify for the NEWHA Postseason Tournament, beginning with best-of-three quarterfinals on February 27. Semifinals are slated for March 4, with the championship game scheduled for March 7.

Senior defender Sydney Russell will wear the "C" for the second consecutive season, becoming the first student-athlete in program history to serve as captain in back-to-back years. She will be joined by fellow seniors Brianna Walkom and Maddi Achtyl, who have been named assistant captains. Walkom returns to the leadership group for the second straight season, while Achtyl earns a letter for the first time in her collegiate career.

Stonehill aims to continue building its legacy in the NEWHA following a 2024-25 season that saw the Skyhawks post a 14-19-5 overall record and a 13-10-5 mark in league play, earning the No. 4 seed in the NEWHA Postseason Tournament.
