† 2022 MAAC Tournament winner |
The 2022 MAAC Tournament was held from March 8 through March 13 at the Jim Whelan Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey for the third year in a row.[1] Saint Peter's defeated Monmouth in the championship to win the conference's automatic bid to the 2022 NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2011. Saint Peter's received a No. 15 seed in the NCAA Tournament East Region, and faced No. 2 seed Kentucky in the first round. They became the tenth No. 15 seed on record to upset a No. 2 seed in the NCAA tournament with a shocking 85–79 victory in overtime. Advancing to the second round, they took on No. 7 seed Murray State, winning that game 70–60, and became the third No. 15 seed to advance to the Sweet 16.[2] At the same time, they became the first MAAC men's basketball program to ever advance to the Sweet 16 as well.[3] In the Sweet Sixteen, Saint Peter's would become the first ever No. 15 seed to advance to the Elite Eight after beating No. 3 seed Purdue 67–64. Their magical season would come to an end in the Elite Eight, with a loss to No. 8 seed North Carolina 49–69.
This was the final MAAC season for Monmouth, which joins the Colonial Athletic Association on July 1, 2022.[4]On May 2, 2022, it was announced that Mount St. Mary's will leave the Northeast Conference and join the MAAC, replacing Monmouth on the same date.[5]
