Rankings from AP poll

The 2019–20 Iowa Hawkeyes women's basketball team represents the University of Iowa during the 2019–20 NCAA Division I women's basketball season. The Hawkeyes, led by 20th year head coach Lisa Bluder, play their home games at Carver–Hawkeye Arena in Iowa City, IA as members of the Big Ten Conference.[1]

On March 12, 2020, the NCAA canceled the 2020 women's basketball tournament due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[2] At the time this cancellation was announced, Iowa had yet to qualify or be selected for tournament play.

The Hawkeyes ended the year with a 23–7 record, an undefeated record on home-court (extending their streak to a total of 36 consecutive wins), and a third-place finish in the regular season in the Big Ten Conference.[3]
