The 1990 NCAA Division I lacrosse tournament was the 20th annual tournament hosted by the National Collegiate Athletic Association to determine the team champion of men's college lacrosse among its Division I programs, held at the end of the 1990 NCAA Division I men's lacrosse season.

Syracuse defeated Loyola Maryland in the championship game, 21–9. However, Syracuse's participation in the tournament was later vacated by the NCAA Committee on infractions because coach Roy Simmons, Jr.'s wife co-signed a car loan with Paul Gait.

The championship game was played at Rutgers Stadium at Rutgers University in Piscataway, New Jersey, with 19,070 fans in attendance.
