Projection: need to automatically qualify
New Hampshire’s early season struggles highlight significant challenges ahead, particularly their hefty losses against Massachusetts and Connecticut, which expose a defense that cannot keep opponents from scoring freely. The lack of quality victories further complicates their case; a narrow win over Fairfield is not enough to build a tournament-worthy resume. To bolster their standing, the Wildcats must target winnable matchups within the America East, like contests against Dartmouth and NJIT, while also needing to show improvement in their scoring efficiency. Their upcoming games are critical—particularly those against teams ranked near them, which could swing momentum and improve their chances of securing automatic qualification.
