The 1992 East Coast Conference men's basketball tournament was held March 7–9, 1992.[1] Its winner did not receive an automatic bid to the 1992 NCAA tournament.

On the tournament's first day, UMBC scored a single-game tournament-record 115 points in an overtime victory over Central Connecticut State, but Towson State broke the record later the same day in a 122–58 win over Buffalo.[2]

The 1992 tournament was the last one the East Coast Conference held until 1994. The conference′s membership fell to three schools for the 1992–93 season, causing it to lose its official conference status under NCAA bylaws, so no conference tournament took place in 1993.
