SIUE Cougars

The SIUE Cougars play at the First Community Arena in Edwardsville, Illinois, competing in the Ohio Valley Conference. The Cougars bring OVC basketball to the St. Louis metro area. SIUE's red and white colors and location across the river from St. Louis create a growing identity.

SIUE transitioned to Division I and has been building its basketball program in the Ohio Valley Conference. The Cougars benefit from their proximity to St. Louis and its basketball talent pool. The program continues to develop in the OVC.
