==Regular season==

In the season opener, the statistics would seem to show the [[Big Ten Conference|Big Ten's]] [[Michigan State Spartans men's soccer|Michigan State Spartans]] dominating the Cougars by leading 12-4 in shots, 6-3 in shots on goal, and 3-1 on corner kicks, but the final score was a 1-1 draw. Strong defense was the keynote for both teams, as they moved up and down the pitch, with the Cougars reluctant to take the less-than-perfect shot. After a near-thing foul in the box, Sparty scored first on a penalty kick in the 38th minute that was the only thing to get past Rob Gjelaj in his debut as the Cougars' goalkeeper. In the 60th minute, Patrick Coleman sent a perfect pass to Nic Muench that was driven past the MSU keeper to earn the draw. <ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.theintelligencer.com/sports/article/siue-cougars-vs-michigan-state-spartans-ncaa-19716800.php |title=Cougars earn opening night draw with Michigan State |publisher= Edwardsville Intelligencer/Edwardsville Publishing Company, LLC |date=August 22, 2024 |accessdate=28 August 2024 }}</ref>

In the first game of their Wolstein Classic, the [[Big Ten Conference|Big Ten's]] 20th ranked [[Ohio State Buckeyes men's soccer|Ohio State Buckeyes]], the Cougars were pretty much dominated in the first half, and, although the second half was fairly well evenly-played, OSU added two more goals to the two from the first half. With four Buckeyes scoring and three of the four adding assists, the home team outshot the Cougars 17-8 and 10-2 on goal.  Although conceding the four goals, Rob Gjelaj made six saves before both sides changed goalkeepers late in the game. Nic Muench led the Cougars with three shots, and Wes Gibson got off two, but it was too little to matter. <ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.theintelligencer.com/sports/article/siue-men-s-soccer-falls-no-20-ohio-state-19730932.php |title=SIUE men's soccer falls to No. 20 Ohio State |publisher= Edwardsville Intelligencer/Edwardsville Publishing Company, LLC |date=August 29, 2024 |accessdate=1 September 2024 }}</ref>

Despite Rob Gjelaj turning away a penalty shot in the thirteenth minute, [[Dayton Flyers men's soccer|Dayton]] dominated the Cougars in the second game of Ohio State's Wolstein Classic.  The Flyers scored once in the first half and three times in the second, even though Gjelaj made eight saves and Ethan Kornas added two more versus Dayton's onslaught of 31 shots, including 15 on goal. Nacho Abeal took two of SIUE's nine shots. <ref name="Wolstein">{{cite news |url=https://www.thetelegraph.com/sports/article/siue-men-soccer-falls-dayton-19739493.php |title=Dayton blanks SIUE men's soccer team  |publisher=The Telegraph |date=September 3, 2024 |accessdate=10 September 2024 }}</ref>

In front of 6,128 fans, the SIUE Cougars and the 19th ranked [[Saint Louis Billikens men's soccer|St. Louis Billikens]] met in [[Downtown West, St. Louis|Downtown West]] at [[CityPark]] in the 41st iteration of the [[Saint Louis–SIU Edwardsville men's soccer rivalry|Bronze Boot Game]] for possession of the ''Joseph Carenza, Sr. Trophy''. The Bills may have won the statistical battle, but the Cougars won the game and took home the Bronze Boot for the second consecutive year. In the 62nd minute, Nacho Abeal was driving toward the goal and was fouled inside the box. Yasha Schaerer converted the penalty kick to give SIUE the 1-0 lead. The Billikens outshot the Cougars 13-4 overall and 4-2 in shots on goal, and they were especially active in the late stages of the game, but Rob Gjelaj made saves on all four potential scores to keep a clean sheet and seal SIUE's first win of the season. The Cougars are now 1-2-1. <ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.thetelegraph.com/opinion/article/siue-cougars-bronze-boot-victory-19751063.php |title=SIUE holds off Saint Louis U. to win Bronze Boot |publisher=The Telegraph |date=September 9, 2024 |accessdate=10 September 2024}}</ref>

The game was rescheduled from Thursday to Friday to miss the heavy weather  of Hurricane Francine's aftermath, but the Cougars and the [[Memphis Tigers men's soccer|Memphis Tigers]] still played to a 1-1 draw in a steady rainfall.  As has generally been the course this season, SIUE trailed the home team in shots 16-8 and on goal 7-5, but both squads was strong enough on defense to prevent any scoring after the game's first seventeen minutes. In the 13th minute, Nacho Abeal pounced on a ball that was loosed by a midfield slip in the wet pitch and flew toward the goal, driving his shot past the keeper to give the Cougars the lead. Five minutes later, as play resumed following an injury substitution, the home team was scurrying around seemingly before SIUE was ready to resume; the ball ended up in a mad scramble right in front of the net, and a Memphis foot knocked it past Rob Gjelaj, who was unable to make one of his six saves. The rest of the match, it was the Tigers pressing and the Cougars turning them away, then the Cougars pressing before it was the Tigers once more. Nic Meunch led SIUE with two shots on goal.  With the draw, the Cougars record is now 1-2-2.  <ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.theintelligencer.com/sports/article/siue-soccer-falls-road-memphis-steady-rain-19765423.php |title=SIUE soccer falls to the road to Memphis in steady rain |publisher= Edwardsville Intelligencer/Edwardsville Publishing Company, LLC |date=September 14, 2024 |accessdate=15 September 2024 }}</ref>
