Projection: need to automatically qualify
American University's season has been a tale of ups and downs, with several wins against weaker competition in the Patriot League, yet their overall performance raises red flags. They secured key victories against teams like Loyola MD and Lehigh, demonstrating their ability to compete, but four losses to the likes of La Salle and Siena expose significant weaknesses, particularly on offense where they consistently struggle to score. Their blowout loss to North Carolina highlights the gap when facing elite programs. To bolster their tournament hopes, success in the Patriot League tournament is crucial, given their lack of quality wins and an overall sparse resume that demands they prove they can stand up to tougher competition.
