# 2024 Big South Conference women's soccer tournament

The 2024 Big South Conference women's soccer tournament was the postseason women's soccer tournament for the Big South Conference held from November 2 through November 10, 2024. The tournament was hosted by campus sites for the First Round and by the Sportsplex at Matthews in Matthews, North Carolina, for the Semifinals and Final. The six team-team single-elimination tournament consisted of three rounds based on seeding from regular season conference play. Radford were the defending champions, and they were the third seed in the 2024 tournament. They were not successful in defending their title as they fell to High Point in overtime, in the Semifinals. USC Upstate would go on to defeat High Point in the Final 3–0 to win the tournament title. The conference tournament title was the first for the USC Upstate women's soccer program, and first for head coach Sharif Saber. As tournament champions, USC Upstate earned the Big South's automatic berth into the 2024 NCAA Division I women's soccer tournament.

## Seeding

The top six teams in the regular season earned a spot in the tournament. The top two seeds earned byes into the Semifinals, and the third and fourth seeds earned the right to host a First Round match. Due to three matches unable to be rescheduled due to the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, the Big South's “Unequal Games Played” policy takes effect, which uses an average points per game system for league wins/ties to determine official standings order. A tiebreaker was required between Charleston Southern and UNC Asheville, as both teams finished with 1.00 points per game in the regular season. UNC Asheville qualified for the tournament as the sixth seed by virtue of their 1–0 regular season win over Charleston Southern. Charleston Southern finished seventh and did not qualify for the tournament.
