Projected seed: 13 (automatic qualifier)

Longwood's resume shows a mixed bag with some solid victories but also notable shortcomings. Wins against UAB and UNC Asheville hint at their potential when facing quality competition, yet losses to teams like Kansas State and McNeese State reveal vulnerabilities, particularly on defense. The offense has struggled against tougher opponents, which doesn't bode well for the NCAA tournament. Upcoming games against Radford and Gardner-Webb are crucial; not only must they win to boost their standings, but they also need to convincingly defeat lower-ranked teams to enhance their profile. Overall, their path to an NCAA tournament berth hinges on clinching the Big South conference title, as their current standing isn’t strong enough for at-large consideration.
