The 2017 Big Ten Conference men's soccer tournament was the 27th edition of the tournament. It determined the Big Ten Conference's automatic berth into the 2017 NCAA Division I Men's Soccer Championship. Maryland entered the tournament as the three-time defending champions, but were defeated in the quarterfinals by eventual champions Wisconsin.[1]
This was the second Big Ten Tournament title for the Wisconsin Badgers.[2] The Badgers defeated Indiana in penalty kicks in the championship game.[3]
All nine Big Ten schools participated in the tournament. Teams were seeded by conference record, with a tiebreaker system used to seed teams with identical conference records. The top 10 teams received a first round bye and the top four teams received a double bye. Tiebreaking procedures remained unchanged from the 2016 Tournament.[4]
