Projection: need to automatically qualify

Manhattan's chances for NCAA tournament inclusion hinge on a lackluster season filled with challenging losses and inconsistent performances. They faced formidable opponents, such as Maryland and Virginia, but were unable to make a significant impact, suffering heavy defeats that highlighted issues in both offense and defense. Wins against lower-ranked teams like Fordham and St. Peter's show occasional glimpses of promise, but their repeated losses to comparable or lower-ranked opponents, like Iona and Fairfield, underscore a troubling trend. To elevate their standing, they must leverage their upcoming games—particularly against competitors like Quinnipiac and Canisius—where victories are crucial. However, without a strong finish to the season and some signature wins, postseason prospects remain slim.
