History

The NESCAC tournament began in 2000 after the nine NESCAC left ECAC East to form the ice hockey division for their primary conference. The tournament has been held annually ever since with the winner receiving a bid to the Division III National Tournament. The 2021 tournament was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
