The five-match tournament took place at campus sites, with the higher seed hosting matches. The host for the matches was determined by seeding from regular season play. The six-team single-elimination tournament consisted of three rounds based on seeding from regular season conference play. The Monmouth Hawks were the defending champions and successfully defended their title, defeating the Fairfield Stags 6–0 in the final.[1][2] This is the fourth consecutive title for Monmouth and 5th overall. The title is also the 5th for head coach Krissy Turner.[3]
