Seeding

The top ten teams in the regular season earned a spot in the tournament. Teams were seeded based on regular season conference records. A tiebreaker was needed to determine the fifth and sixth seeds as both Rutgers and Washington finished with twenty-one conference points. The two teams met during the regular season on September 22, and Rutgers won 1–0. Therefore, Rutgers earned the fifth seed while Washington earned the sixth seed. [7]
