The Hurricanes finished the season 19–12 overall and 8–10 in ACC play to finish in ninth place. As the ninth seed in the ACC tournament, they defeated eighth seed North Carolina in the Second Round before losing to first seeded Virginia Tech in the Quarterfinals. On Selection Sunday, the Hurricanes were not picked to be a part of the field for the 2024 NCAA Tournament, and were left out by the selection committee. The team declined an invite to the inaugural WBIT, ending their season.[3]
