The 1993 NCAA Division I lacrosse tournament was the 23rd 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 1993 NCAA Division I men's lacrosse season.

Syracuse defeated North Carolina in the championship game, 13–12, with Syracuse's Matt Riter scoring the game-winner with eight seconds left. It was the Orangemen's fourth NCAA championship and eighth overall lacrosse national title.

Syracuse finished the season 12-2 even though the Tar Heels had beaten the Oragnemen earlier in the season, 14–10.[1]

The championship game was played at Byrd Stadium at the University of Maryland in College Park, Maryland, with 19,965 fans in attendance.[2]
