The Mid-American Conference Women's Soccer Tournament is the conference championship tournament in soccer for the Mid-American Conference (MAC). The tournament has been held every year since 1997. It is a single-elimination tournament and seeding is based on regular season records. The winner, declared conference champion, receives the conference's automatic bid to the NCAA Division I Women's Soccer Championship.
Format
The teams are seeded based on the order of finish in the conference's regular season. The teams are then placed in a single-elimination bracket, with the top seed playing the lowest seed, until meeting in a final championship game. The women's soccer tournament begins in late October at campus sites. It concludes in early November at the highest remaining seed's home field.
