The 2022 America East Conference men's soccer tournament was the postseason men's soccer tournament for the America East Conference held from November 5 through November 13, 2022. The five-match tournament took place at campus sites, with the higher seed hosting. The six-team single-elimination tournament consisted of three rounds based on seeding from regular season conference play. The defending champions were the Vermont Catamounts,[1] who were unable to defend their title, losing in the Semifinals to Albany. New Hampshire went on to win the tournament after a 2–0 victory in the final over Albany.[2] It was the fourth victory for the New Hampshire Wildcats soccer program, all of which have come under Head Coach Marc Hubbard. This was New Hampshire's fourth tournament victory in the last five years.[3] As tournament champions, New Hampshire earned the America East's automatic berth into the 2022 NCAA Division I men's soccer tournament.

Seeding

The top six teams in the regular season earned a spot in the tournament, with the top two seeds receiving byes into the Semifinals. A tiebreaker was required to determine the third and fourth seeds as Albany and UMBC both finished with twelve regular season points. Albany was awarded the third seed by virtue of their 1–0 regular season victory over UMBC on September 24.[4]
