Projection: need to automatically qualify

Army’s résumé leaves little margin for error and makes the conference tournament the most realistic path to the NCAA field. A lopsided home loss to Duke and rough road defeats at Boston University and Navy stand out as damaging results, while the program’s better moments arrived in Patriot League play with a true road win at Bucknell and home holds over Lehigh and Holy Cross. Repeated setbacks to Colgate at both ends of the schedule and an absence of quality nonconference victories mean the remaining regular-season dates, including the home meeting with Bucknell and road trips to Loyola Maryland and Lafayette plus a late clash with Navy, are the last clear chances to demonstrate the road and neutral success committees prize and to build momentum for the league tournament. Unless Army seizes those opportunities and then captures the Patriot League title, its profile will be judged insufficient for an at-large berth.
