Projection: need to automatically qualify
American University faces a tough road ahead to secure a spot in the NCAA tournament. Their overall performance has been inconsistent, highlighted by heavy losses to teams like North Carolina and La Salle, which really hurt their standing. While they picked up wins against lesser opponents such as Harvard and G Washington, the lack of signature victories is concerning. Opportunities lie ahead with games against teams like Navy and Holy Cross, where securing wins could bolster their resume. However, a loss to a low-ranked team could be detrimental, making it essential for them to capitalize on upcoming matchups and earn an automatic qualifier through the Patriot League tournament.
