Projection: need to automatically qualify
La Salle is in a tough position for an at-large bid, primarily due to a mediocre overall record and shaky performance against quality opponents. Their wins over American University and Lafayette don’t hold much weight, while losses against stronger teams like North Carolina and VCU reveal vulnerabilities, particularly on defense. The team will need to find a way to improve by capitalizing on upcoming games against mid-tier rivals; victories against St. Joseph’s and Duquesne could significantly bolster their resume. A strong finish in the Atlantic 10 tournament is crucial, as at this stage, their best chance for postseason play hinges on securing an automatic bid.
