The 2022 CAA women's soccer tournament was the postseason women's soccer tournament for the Colonial Athletic Association held from October 27 through November 5, 2022. The Quarterfinals and Semifinals of the tournament were hosted by the first and second seed and the final was hosted by the highest remaining seed. The eight-team single-elimination tournament consisted of two rounds based on seeding from regular season conference play. The defending champions were the Hofstra Pride,[1] who successfully defendeded their title, despite being the eighth and final team to qualify for the tournament. Hofstra won the tournament by defeating Northeastern 2–1 in overtime the final.[2] The conference tournament title was the eighth overall for the Hofstra women's soccer program and the seventh overall for head coach Simon Riddiough. Both Hofstra and Riddiough have won five of the last six CAA Tournaments.[3] As tournament champions, Hofstra earned the CAA's automatic berth into the 2022 NCAA Division I women's soccer tournament.
