The 1973 NCAA Division I soccer tournament was the 15th annual tournament organized by the National Collegiate Athletic Association to determine the national champion of men's college soccer among its Division I members in the United States. Beginning with this season, the NCAA changed its classification system, and the former University Division was rebranded as Division I.
The final match was played at the Miami Orange Bowl in Miami, Florida on January 4.
Saint Louis won their tenth national title, and second consecutive, by defeating UCLA in the championship game, 2–1 after one overtime period.[1]
