<div class="payload-richtext"><a href="https://www.ncaa.com/brackets/lacrosse-men/d1/2026">
 NCAA BRACKET 
 </a>ROSEMONT, Ill. – Two Big Ten schools have qualified for the 2026 NCAA Division I Men’s Lacrosse Championship. Big Ten regular season co-champion and tournament champion Penn State earned the conference's automatic berth, while regular season co-champion Johns Hopkins earned an at-large berth.  The NCAA field includes 18 teams with opening-round play-in games taking place on Wednesday, May 6, followed by eight first-round contests occurring Saturday and Sunday, May 9-10, on campus sites. Quarterfinal games will take place at Delaware Stadium in Newark, Del. and at James M. Shuart Stadium in Hempstead, N.Y. on May 16-17, with the semifinals and final slated for Scott Stadium in Charlottesville, Va. on May 23 and May 25. No. 8 seed Penn State (9-5) will host Patriot League champion Army at Panzer Stadium on Saturday, May 9 at 2:30 p.m. ET. This marks the fourth-straight NCAA Tournament appearance for the Nittany Lions and ninth trip overall. Last season, Penn State was one of two Big Ten teams to advance to the semifinals.  Johns Hopkins (9-5) returns to the tournament for the first time since 2024. The Blue Jays will travel to New York to face No. 7 seed Cornell on Saturday, May 9 at 5:00 p.m. ET. The Blue Jays currently lead the NCAA in tournament appearances (49) and tournament victories (73).  Since the conference began sponsoring lacrosse in 2015, a Big Ten school has made the semifinals of every NCAA Tournament played. Both games will be broadcast on ESPNU. </div>

Two Big Ten Teams Selected to NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Tournament

 TOURNAMENT CENTRAL
 </a> Piscataway, N.J. – No. 2 seed Penn State (9-5, 3-2) defeated No. 1 seed Johns Hopkins (9-5, 3-2) 16-8 in the Big Ten Men’s Lacrosse Tournament Championship game. The Nittany Lions dominated the second half to earn the program’s second title, the last being in 2019. The first half was met with back-and-forth action that included three ties and three lead changes. A goal by Johns Hopkins’ All-Tournament Team member Jimmy Ayers early in the second quarter put the Blue Jays up 4-3, but Penn State scored three unanswered goals to take a 6-4 lead heading into the locker room.  To open the third quarter, Matt Collison and Hunter Chauvette scored back-to-back goals for the Blue Jays to even the game at 6-6. Shortly after, Penn State found its footing and demonstrated why it is second in the NCAA in shooting percentage, scoring five unanswered goals to end the quarter.  A quick goal from Chauvette closed the lead to 11-7 to start the fourth quarter, but the Nittany Lions went on another run, scoring four straight, which included two goals from junior Kyle Lehman, effectively putting the game out of reach. Penn State sophomore Hunter Aquino earned Most Outstanding Player honors. He opened the match with the first goal, and finished the day with two goals, two assists and a caused turnover. He also recorded a hat trick in the semifinals win against Maryland.  All-Tournament Team member and faceoff specialist Colby Baldwin was instrumental in the Nittany Lions’ tournament efforts, going 11-of-15 on the day and 17-of-25 in the tournament. Penn State led all schools with five players on the All-Tournament Team.The Big Ten will find out how many of its teams qualify for the postseason when the NCAA Selection Show airs Sunday evening at 9:30 p.m. ET on ESPNU.  Tournament Most Outstanding Player:   Hunter Aquino, Penn State 2026 Big Ten Men’s Lacrosse All-Tournament Team   Brooks English, Johns Hopkins  Hunter Chauvette, Johns Hopkins  Jimmy Ayers, Johns Hopkins  Thomas Gravino, Maryland  Nick Roode, Michigan  Alex Ross, Penn State  Colby Baldwin, Penn State  Hunter Aquino, Penn State  Kyle Lehman, Penn State  Preston Hawkins, Penn State </div>

 TOURNAMENT CENTRAL
 </a>  PISCATAWAY, N.J. – No. 1 seed Johns Hopkins and No. 2 seed Penn State will advance to the 2026 Big Ten Lacrosse Tournament championship game. Both schools won a share of the regular season title, and it marks the second time the two schools will square off against each other in the tournament finals.  Johns Hopkins (9-4, 3-2) held on against No. 5 seed Michigan (6-9, 2-3), 14-12, in the first semifinal matchup at SHI Stadium.  The second quarter saw intense back-and-forth action, and with the Wolverines down 7-5, goalie Hunter Taylor took matters into his own hands. The senior captain carried the ball towards half field, and after going unmarked by a Johns Hopkins defender, he committed to attacking the lane and sent a shot to the back of the net to make the score 7-6. However, Johns Hopkins still entered the locker room with an 8-7 advantage after a goal from Chuck Rawson. The Blue Jays opened the second half with four straight goals to take a 12-7 lead, but Michigan stormed back with five straight goals of their own to tie the game at 12 apiece with 8:09 remaining in the fourth. Hunter Chauvette and Brooks English then scored two solo goals to put Johns Hopkins up 14-12. For the last 6:41, both teams remained scoreless which cemented the win for the Blue Jays. Chauvette led all players with five points on the evening. In the second game of the evening, Penn State (8-5, 3-2) bested Maryland (7-6, 3-2) in a defensive battle. After the Nittany Lions took a 5-3 lead after the first three quarters, Liam Matthews opened the quarter with a Penn State goal to take a three-goal lead. However, the Terps responded with two consecutive scores from Jack Schultz and Braden Erksa to trail by just one at 6-5 with 6:12 remaining on the clock. After goals from each team, Penn State’s Andrew Beard scored a goal to put the Nittany Lions up 8-6 with 1:30 remaining, ultimately icing the game. Maryland was only able to earn one more possession but failed to score, securing the win for Penn State. Hunter Aquino, last year’s Big Ten Freshman of the Year, led all scorers with a hat-trick and also added a caused turnover in the winning effort. Johns Hopkins and Penn State will meet at 12 p.m. ET Saturday in the Big Ten Tournament Championship Game, marking a rematch of the 2019 Championship game, which was also at SHI Stadium. Penn State claimed the title in a  18-17 win, the highest scoring tournament game in conference history. If the Blue Jays win, it will be their first Big Ten Tournament Championship title since 2018. </div>

 </a> Rosemont, Ill. – The Big Ten Conference has unveiled the full bracket for the 2026 Big Ten Men’s Lacrosse Tournament, set to take place from April 25-May 2 at SHI Stadium in Piscataway, N.J.   With Johns Hopkins’ 9-8 win over Maryland on Saturday, the Blue Jays, Ohio State, and Penn State all earned a share of the Big Ten regular season championship, along with Maryland, who claimed a share of the title last Saturday after a win over Rutgers.   With all four teams going 3-2 in conference play, the Blue Jays also secured the No. 1 overall seed and a bye to the Big Ten Tournament semifinals via tiebreakers.   Penn State holds a head-to-head advantage over Ohio State and Maryland, so the Nittany Lions also receive a bye to the semifinals as the No. 2 seed.  Maryland beat Ohio State earlier this season to earn the head-to-head advantage, placing the Terps as the No. 3 seed and the Buckeyes as the No. 4 seed. Michigan and Rutgers earned the No. 5 and 6 seeds, respectively.  The tournament will open on Saturday, April 25, with two quarterfinal games, with the winners advancing to the semifinal round in Piscataway.  No. 3 seed Maryland welcomes No. 6 Rutgers and No. 4 seed Ohio State will host No. 5 seed Michigan at times yet to be determined.   Semifinal contests will begin at 3 p.m. (ET) and 6 p.m. (ET) on April 30 in Piscataway, with the championship scheduled for 12:00 p.m. Saturday, May 2. All three contests will be broadcast live on BTN and the FOX Sports app.   The winner of this year’s Big Ten Tournament will earn the conference’s automatic berth into the NCAA Championship, with that bracket announced at 9:30 p.m. (ET) May 3 live on ESPNU.  For more information on the 2026 Big Ten Men’s Lacrosse Tournament, visit <a href="https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fbigten.org%2Fmlax%2Farticle%2F59420%2F&data=05%7C02%7Camccaffery%40bigten.org%7Cf7d9900066104b9ac63708de9d8ea464%7C5c35f07cce5e4fa582baa44898424550%7C1%7C0%7C639121433137028766%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=zsQCmowuDpBvs%2FmxZ2nj9vZawVJ4S2RojoPVDeJukQo%3D&reserved=0" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">
