The 2021 Big East Conference men's soccer tournament was the post-season women's soccer tournament for the Big East Conference held from November 6 to 14, 2021, in the USA. The five-match tournament took place at Shaw Field in Washington, D.C. for the semifinals and finals, while the first round was hosted by the higher seeded team. The six-team single-elimination tournament consisted of three rounds based on seeding from regular season conference play. The defending champions were the Seton Hall Pirates. They were unable to defendtheir title after not qualifying for the tournament and finishing in last place in the regular season standings. Georgetown finished as tournament champions after defeating Providence 2âÂÂ1 in overtime in the final. This is the fifth title in program history for Georgetown, all of which have come under Head Coach Brian Wiese. As tournament champions, Georgetown earned the Big East's automatic place in the 2021 NCAA Division I men's soccer tournament.
The top six teams in the regular season earned a spot in the tournament. Teams were seeded based on regular season conference record and tiebreakers were used to determine seedings of teams that finished with the same record. The Semifinals and Finals of the tournament were hosted by the first seed, Georgetown. A tiebreaker was required to determine the fourth, fifth and sixth seeds as Creighton, Villanova and Butler all finished with identical 5âÂÂ4âÂÂ1 regular season records. When three teams are tied, a "mini-conference" is created with those three teams and the team with the best record is awarded the highest seed. Creighton earned the fourth seed after going 2âÂÂ0âÂÂ0 against Villanova and Butler. Villanova earned the fifth seed by going 1âÂÂ1âÂÂ0 against the other teams. Butler was the sixth seed after posting a 0âÂÂ2âÂÂ0 record against the other teams.
