The tournament decided the Atlantic Coast Conference champion and guaranteed representative into the 2022 NCAA Division I men's soccer tournament. The final was played at Sahlen's Stadium in Cary, North Carolina.[1] [2]
The defending champions, Notre Dame was unable to defend their title, falling to Clemson in the first round.

The victory was the second ACC Tournament title during Syracuse's time in the ACC and second title under head coach Ian McIntyre.[4]
