Projection: need to automatically qualify

American University faces a tough road ahead in its quest for an NCAA tournament invitation. Their performance has been inconsistent, highlighted by a significant loss to North Carolina, which showcases their struggle against top-tier competition. While they’ve notched victories against teams like Harvard and George Washington, the overall quality of those wins is lackluster. Additionally, losses against teams like La Salle and Siena, paired with a mixed performance within the Patriot League, hinder their resume. The upcoming games against Navy and Colgate will be critical; winning both could help build some momentum, but even then, they'll likely need to make a deep run in their conference tournament to strengthen their case for an at-large bid.
