The tournament was hosted at campus sites, with the higher seed hosting each game. The six-team single-elimination tournament consisted of three rounds based on seeding from regular season conference play. The defending champions were the Missouri State Bears, who were unsuccessful in defending their crown as they moved to CUSA during the offseason. The sixth-seeded UIC Flames would go on to win the tournament in a penalty shoot-out over Illinois State. The conference tournament title was the first for the UIC women's soccer program, and first Missouri Valley title for head coach David Nikolic. As tournament champions, UIC earned the Missouri Valley's automatic berth into the 2025 NCAA Division I women's soccer tournament.
