Marking its 11th annual competition, the Big Ten men's lacrosse tournament will bring the conference's six best teams together over two weekends with a trophy on the line.
Six programs will enter this year's tournament, with the top two teams from the regular season receiving first-round byes. No. 1 Johns Hopkins leads the bracket, followed closely by No. 2 Penn State. Each has had a long wait since its last Big Ten tournament title, with the Nittany Lions' last championship coming in 2019 and the Blue Jays' in 2018.
Rivals Michigan and Ohio State have gone back and forth with conference titles in recent years, with the Wolverines claiming trophies in 2023 and 2024, and Ohio State in 2025. Rutgers and four-time champion Maryland round out the remainder of the bracket.
