The 2026 womenâs lacrosse regular season wrapped up for the Big East on Saturday, and as such, the four team conference tournament bracket is locked in place and ready for next weekend!
The 2026 Big East womenâs lacrosse conference tournament bracket
Denver is the #1 seed in the field, as they won the regular season Big East championship with a perfect 6-0 record. Georgetown secured the #2 seed by getting to the last game of the regular season with a 5-0 record before falling 11-5 to Denver in a game that settled these two seeds.
Spots 3, 4, and 5 in the Big East standings got a little bit messy with everyone that weâre talking about here today coming up with wins over both Xavier and Butler in the back end of the standings. Marquette, Villanova, and UConn all finished with a record of 3-3 in league play. All three also went 1-1 against the other two and oh-fer against both Denver and Georgetown. Iâm not sure exactly what tiebreaker ended up settling out who made it into the tournament and who got left out at that point, but the end result was that UConnâs 12-10 win over Marquette on Saturday put the Huskies into the field as the #3 seed as the Golden Eagles had already secured a bid in the tournament. Villanova closed out their campaign with an 18-9 win over Butler, but they end up out in the cold.
All three games of the conference tournament will be hosted by Denver and played at Peter Barton Lacrosse Stadium in Colorado. The semifinals will be played on Thursday, April 30, and the title game will be played on Saturday, May 2. All three games will get a streaming only broadcast on ESPN+.
