Here are the Big Ten men’s & women’s lacrosse tournament brackets

After a regular season that saw both teams ranked in the top five of their sports, the Maryland men’s and women’s lacrosse teams are getting ready for postseason play.

This week, the Terrapins will hope to clinch Big Ten conference tournament titles in Piscataway, New Jersey, and Baltimore, respectively, in hopes of earning the best seed possible come NCAA Tournament time.

After losing to unranked Johns Hopkins, 16-11, on Saturday night, the men’s team received the No. 3 seed in the four-team field. However, the Terps will get a rematch opportunity in the conference semifinals on Thursday night at 7:30 p.m. ET on the Big Ten Network. Should they win, they’d face the winner of Penn State and Rutgers on Saturday for the chance to win yet another tournament championship.

The women’s team, on the other hand, won the regular-season title with a 17-0 record (6-0 in conference play), earning the No. 1 seed in the tournament. The Terrapins, who cruised past Hopkins 19-12 on Saturday afternoon, will start their conference tournament title defense on Friday evening against Penn State at 5 p.m. ET on BTN. On the other side of the bracket are Northwestern and Michigan, with the championship game being played on Sunday afternoon.

Both teams have been dominant thus far in Big Ten conference tournaments, as the men’s team won back-to-back titles before a loss last year while the women’s team has taken three in a row following a loss in its debut tournament in 2015.
