It was held March 11 and 12, 2022, at the Lavietes Pavilion on the campus of Harvard University in Boston.[1][a] Princeton won its third Ivy League championship, earning an automatic bid to the 2022 NCAA Division I women's basketball tournament, the team's ninth appearance.[2]

Seeds

[edit]

The top four teams in the Ivy League regular-season standings qualified for the tournament and were seeded according to their records in conference play, resulting in a Shaughnessy playoff. If a tie for any of the top four positions exists, tiebreakers are applied in the following order:

  • Head-to-head record between teams involved in the tie.
  • Record against the top team(s) not involved in the tie in order of conference record, going down through the seedings until the tie is broken.
  • Average of the teams' ranking in the following computer systems: NCAA NET, Sagarin, KenPom, and ESPN Basketball Percentage Index.[3]
