Seeding and format

All six eligible teams were seeded one through six based on conference winning percentage only. The No. 1 and No. 2 seeds received a first-round bye. The teams then played a double-elimination tournament.[4] UMass Lowell, despite hosting the event, was not eligible to participate as it was transitioning from Division II. The River Hawks are expected to complete this transition and be eligible for championships in the 2017–18 academic year.[5][6]
