CALDWELL, Idaho – Simplot Stadium and the College of Idaho will be the hosts for the 2022 Pacific Northwest Collegiate Lacrosse League (PNCLL) Division I and II tournaments, which will be held on April 30-May 1.

The winners of each divisional tournament will receive an automatic qualifying berth to the 2022 MCLA National Championships presented by New Balance, which will be held in Round Rock, Texas, from May 9-14.

BRACKETS: DIVISION I | DIVISION II

“We’re excited to be in Caldwell and at Simplot Stadium for our championships,” said PNCLL director Jason Stockton. “Both of our divisions have numerous contenders, so this will be can’t-miss lacrosse for any fan in the area.”

Each divisional bracket will consist of a traditional four-team format.

In Division I, Simon Fraser has already wrapped up the No. 1 seed and will play the fourth seed on Saturday, April 30 at 3 p.m. The second through four seeds will be all determined after Saturday’s Oregon at Oregon State clash.

In Division II, there will be a crossover format between the North and South subdivisions. Montana and Western Washington are the top two seeds out of the North, respectively.

Both College of Idaho and Northwest Nazarene have qualified out of the South, but Saturday night's game between the two will determine the top seed. If the Yotes win, they will play the 9 a.m. game on April 30. If the Nighthawks are victorious, Montana will play in the early game.

Tickets for the event are $10 and all of the games are tentatively scheduled to be streamed live.
