Full 2026 NCAA Men's Lacrosse Tournament schedule
Penn State looks to make a deep run in this year's NCAA men's lacrosse tournament after winning the Big Ten championship.
Penn State lacrosse is gearing up for a shot at a national championship after coming through with a Big Ten title this past weekend. The Nittany Lions clinched the Big Ten's automatic berth in this year's NCAA tournament and have been slotted as the No. 8 seed in the 18-team postseason bracket.
Penn State will get a bye in the opening round and will take on Army at home in its first-round matchup next weekend. Penn State's Saturday afternoon matchup with Army is part of a full day of NCAA tournament lacrosse action. A win at home against Army could potentially set up a quarterfinal round matchup with the tournament's top seed, the Princeton Tigers.
Penn State took the regular-season matchup with Princeton, 13-7, on the road in New Jersey early in the season, but the Nittany Lions will have their hands full first with Army, this year's Patriot League champions. Here is a look at the full NCAA men's lacrosse tournament bracket and schedule for this year. All times are Eastern.
Teams playing at home are listed first, where applicable. Opening Round Marisyt vs. Stony Brook - Wednesday, May 6, 7:00m p.
