Projection: need to automatically qualify

Fairfield's resume paints a picture of a team struggling to find consistency, especially against higher-caliber opponents, as highlighted by their heavy losses to Rhode Island and Yale. Although they have notched a few wins against lower-ranked teams like New Hampshire and Niagara, their inability to secure quality wins in non-conference play significantly hampers their chances. The narrow margin in some losses, such as the recent defeat to Marist and the competitive outing against Mt. St. Mary’s, shows potential but ultimately underscores a trend of inconsistency. To improve their standing, Fairfield must focus on winning critical games against fellow conference rivals, particularly those ranked closer to them, such as Iona and Quinnipiac, to build a more compelling case for NCAA tournament consideration.
