Seeding

Seeding was based on regular season play with the top six teams qualifying for the tournament. The top two seeds received a bye to the Semifinals of the tournament and the higher seed hosted each match. A tiebreaker was required to determin the second and third seeds as both Bucknell and Boston University finished with eighteen points after regular season play. Bucknell won the regular season matchup between the two teams, so they were the second seed and earned the bye to the semifinals, while Boston University was the third seed. A tiebreaker was required to determine who the sixth and final team to make the tournament would be, as Loyola (MD) and Colgate both finished with 3–4–2 records in the regular season. Loyola (MD) won their regular season match-up 1–0 and earned the final spot in the tournament. [5]
