The 2017 SIU Edwardsville Cougars men's soccer team will represent Southern Illinois University Edwardsville during the 2017 NCAA Division I men's soccer season, the school's 51st season. The Cougars are coached by Mario Sanchez. The team plays their home games on Bob Guelker Field at the Ralph Korte Stadium as an affiliate member of the Mid-American Conference (MAC). Initially announced as moving from the Missouri Valley Conference to the MAC in 2018, on June 8, it was announced that the move would be made immediately.
Fifteen players returned from the 2016 squad that won the Missouri Valley Conference men's soccer tournament championship and advanced to the 3rd round of the NCAA tournament along with two players who were redshirted as freshmen. Twelve of the returners started games for the 2016 Cougars. They are joined by three transfer students and seven freshmen.
In their opening spring game, the Cougars tied the professional Saint Louis FC of the United Soccer League 1–1 on March 19. The Cougars' spring play includes a game at MVC rival Evansville and home games against Division I opponents Milwaukee of the Horizon League and UMKC of the Western Athletic Conference and Lindenwood-Belleville of the NAIA and the American Midwest Conference.
