The 2022 ASUN men's soccer tournament was the 44th edition of the postseason men's soccer tournament for the ASUN Conference, held from November 5 through November 12, 2022. All rounds of the tournament were hosted at the first and second seeds home stadiums, with the #1 seed Lipscomb, hosting the Final. The six-team single-elimination tournament consisted of three rounds based on seeding from regular season conference play. The Lipscomb Bison were the defending tournament champions,[1] and were successful in defending their title, defeating second seed Central Arkansas 6–2 in the Final.[2] It was their fourth title in six years, and fourth title in program history for Lipscomb and coach Charles Morrow.[3] As tournament champions, Lipscomb earned the ASUN'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. Teams were seeded based on regular season conference record and tiebreakers were used to determine seedings of teams that finished with the same record. No tiebreakers were required as the top six teams in conference play finished with unique regular season records.[4]
