All eligible finishers from the regular season were seeded one through six based on conference winning percentage during the conference's regular season. The tournament will play out as a modified double-elimination tournament, with the bottom four seeds playing each other in the single-elimination first round and the rest of the tournament as double-elimination. Due to their transition from Division III to Division I, St. Thomas is ineligible for the Summit League and NCAA tournaments until 2026.
