Projection: need to automatically qualify
A resume anchored by a gritty road victory at Stony Brook but scarred by heavy defeats at Marquette, Massachusetts and Rhode Island creates a sharp contrast that committees notice. Tight neutral losses to Colgate and Yale show the team can compete with comparable midmajors but those competitive moments are undermined by several blowouts and a poor showing at Columbia that leave durability in question. The remainder of the America East slate offers clear chances to rebuild the resume with home wins and meaningful road tests, including a trip to Vermont that will be watched closely. Put simply, the team’s best moment proves it can win away from home while the worst moments have done real damage, and how the squad performs in those conference opportunities will determine whether the earlier nonconference results can be overcome.
