2026 NCAA Division I men's lacrosse tournament

Summary

The 2026 NCAA Division I men's lacrosse tournament was the 55th annual single-elimination tournament to help determine the national championship for NCAA Division I men's college lacrosse. The semifinals and championship final were hosted by the University of Virginia at Scott Stadium in Charlottesville, Virginia. The site of the semifinal and championship final was changed because of the 2026 FIFA World Cup which is being hosted in part at Gillette Stadium, which was the initial host of the NCAA Lacrosse Championships for this year. The Princeton Tigers won their 7th NCAA title against Notre Dame in this championship by beating Notre Dame 16-9. Chad Palumbo led the Tigers offensively with a six-point performance, while Tucker Wade, Quinn Krammer and Cooper Mueller all added multi-point outings as Princeton’s offense continued its strong postseason run. Andrew McMeekin once again controlled possession at the faceoff X, helping Princeton dominate opportunities throughout the afternoon.
