The 1994 NCAA Division I lacrosse tournament was the 24th annual tournament hosted by the National Collegiate Athletic Association to determine the team champion of men's college lacrosse among its Division I programs, held at the end of the 1994 NCAA Division I men's lacrosse season.

The final match saw Princeton defeat Virginia, 9–8, with Kevin Lowe—brother of Hall-of-Fame lacrosse player Darren Lowe converting Jeff MacBean's pass forty-two seconds into overtime to win the game. This was the Tigers' second NCAA national championship and second under head coach Bill Tierney.[1][2]

The championship game was played at Byrd Stadium at the University of Maryland in College Park, Maryland, with 24,730 fans in attendance.

Qualifying

Twelve NCAA Division I college men's lacrosse teams met after having played their way through a regular season, and for some, a conference tournament.

No teams made their Division I men's lacrosse tournament debut in 1994.
