Projected seed: 12 (automatic qualifier)

Grand Canyon's profile suggests a team that has some notable strengths along with key weaknesses. The victories against Arizona State and Stanford show they can compete with higher-tier teams, yet the losses to UC Davis and Georgia highlight inconsistencies in scoring and defense. Their overall performance in the WAC remains solid; however, the glaring defensive struggles, especially evident in their losses, could be a liability in postseason play. Upcoming games against teams like Utah Valley and Seattle will be critical. Winning those would bolster their resume significantly and could potentially improve their chances for an at-large bid if they stumble in the conference tournament. Consistency in defense and finding ways to secure tougher wins is essential for them to solidify their standing.
