2026 Atlantic Division Men’s Schedule
Atlantic Division Schedule Notes
NOTE: Due to the large number of teams, no school had enough time to manage a crossover weekend with all teams attending. The division is split into North and South regions that play double round-robin within the groups. The University of Virginia is located in the Northern region due to being the closest team to the Southern region teams that was not hosting (August 22).
NOTE: At the Atlantic Division Championship, the top three teams from each region make either Bracket A or B to compete for the division title and the bottom two play round robin against the bottom two from the opposing region in Bracket C to determine seventh-to-10th places. The Northern Region regular season winner earns the No. 1 seed due to the University of Virginia – the 2025 Atlantic Division Champion – competing in that region (August 22).
NOTE: The schedule for the weekend of Saturday-Sunday, September 19-20, at the University of Maryland is revised as of August 24 (August 24).
NOTE: The schedule for Saturday, October 24, during the Atlantic Division Championship hosted by the University of Maryland is adjusted as of September 2 due to a pool conflict. All games during the weekend except the title game use six-minute quarters with sudden death overtime and teams limited to one timeout per half (September 2).
NOTE: Per a request from host North Carolina State University to start games earlier in the day, contests on Saturday, October 3, will now start at Noon (September 3).
