The 2021 NCAA Division I Men's Lacrosse Championship was the 50th annual single-elimination tournament to determine the national championship for National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I men's college lacrosse. Because the Ivy League did not participate in lacrosse this season, no play-in game was required. This was the first tournament played since 2019 due to the 2020 tournament being cancelled during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Sixteen teams competed in the tournament based upon their performance during the regular season. For eight teams, entry into the tournament was by means of a conference tournament automatic qualifier and/or play in, while for the remaining eight teams at-large selection was determined by the NCAA selection committee.
