The Beanpot is an annual men's and women's ice hockey tournament among the four major US college hockey teams of the Boston, Massachusetts area. The men's tournament is usually held during the first two Mondays in February at TD Garden and the women's tournament rotates hosts between the four schools.[1][2] The four teams are the Boston University Terriers (men's 31 championships, women's 2), Boston College Eagles (men's 20 championships, women's 8), Harvard University Crimson (men's 11 championships, women's 15), and Northeastern University Huskies (men's 9 championships, women's 17).[3] The men's tournament has been held annually since the 1952–53 season and has been held at its current location since 1996, except for 2021 when it was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Northeastern is the current men's Beanpot champion, having won the 2024 tournament. The women's tournament began in 1979, and Northeastern is the 2024 champion.[3]
Due to the success of the hockey tournament, numerous other "Beanpots" have been contested in a number of other sports over the years, usually involving teams from the same four schools.
