The 2024 Mountain West Conference women's soccer tournament was the postseason women's soccer tournament for the Mountain West Conference held from November 3 through November 9, 2024. The five-match tournament took place at SDSU Sports Deck in San Diego, California. The six-team single-elimination tournament consisted of three rounds based on seeding from regular season conference play. The Utah State Aggies were the defending champions. ^{[1] [2]} The Aggies successfully defended their title by defeating first seed Boise State in the Final, 2–1. ^{[3] [4]} This was the second Mountain West tournament championship for Utah State. They previously won two championships in the WAC. ^[5] It was the second title for head coach Manny Martins. ^[6] As tournament champions, Utah State earned the Mountain West's automatic berth into the 2024 NCAA Division I women's soccer tournament.

Seeding

The top six Mountain West teams from regular season play qualified for the 2024 Tournament. Teams were seeded based on their regular season records. Tiebreakers were used to determine seeds if teams were tied on regular season record. ^[7] A tiebreaker was required to determine the second and third seed, which determined the team that earned the second bye in the tournament. Colorado State and Utah State both finished the conference regular season with 7–1–3 records and on 24 points. The two teams tied their October 13 match-up 1–1. The second tiebreaker was goal difference in conference matches. Colorado state finished with a +11 goal difference and Utah State finished with a +20 goal difference. Therefore Utah State earned the second seed and a bye into the semifinals. Another tiebreaker was needed to determine the sixth and final team to qualify for the tournament as Colorado College and Nevada both finished with 4–5–2 records and on 14 points. Nevada earned the sixth and final spot in the tournament by virtue of their 5–0 win over Colorado College on October 6. ^[8]
