Projection: need to automatically qualify
Marist’s résumé is built around a stingy defense and a string of reliable conference wins at home but it lacks a signature victory away from home or at a neutral site that committees prize. A gritty road win at Dartmouth and solid victories over Manhattan, Lehigh, Army and Mt St Mary’s show they can close out games, while a tight home loss to Harvard and a competitive road setback at Xavier expose an offense that can struggle against tougher opponents. Remaining nonconference travel to Georgia Tech and league road tests at Quinnipiac, Siena and Canisius are rare chances to collect resume-changing road wins, and with winnable home dates against Iona, Fairfield and St Peter’s the schedule still offers clear opportunities to improve before Selection Sunday.
