Projection: need to automatically qualify

Navy's resume illustrates the challenges they face in securing an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament, primarily due to their lack of quality wins and a challenging non-conference schedule that yielded minimal success. Their victory over Harvard, while a positive note, is overshadowed by losses to teams like St. Joseph's and Rider, hampering their overall standing. The team’s offensive struggles were evident in multiple contests, particularly in their losses to Campbell and Elon, where they failed to keep pace in high-scoring situations. As they navigate the rest of the season, the upcoming games against teams like Holy Cross and Loyola Maryland are pivotal; winning these could provide a much-needed boost, but continued losses in the Patriot League could seal their fate, forcing them to rely on an automatic qualification route through the conference tournament.
