Projection: need to automatically qualify

Navigating the bubble for Lehigh is all about seizing the golden ticket that comes with winning the Patriot League Tournament. The season's highlights, like the dominant win over Colgate, showcase their potential to upset the balance in a one-and-done scenario. However, losses to key opponents such as Penn State and North Carolina expose the gaps in experience and depth that haunt their resume. The close games with Navy and American University highlight that Lehigh can compete, but consistency is the linchpin they need to secure in their final outings. The mixed bag of wins and losses illustrates a team that must find a higher gear when facing top-tier competition to avoid an early exit and make any potential tournament appearance meaningful. With the regular season offering no further chances to bolster their standing, their path is straightforward but steep: win the conference tournament or bust.
