Projection: need to automatically qualify
Towson’s placement is logical because the resume contains eye‑catching neutral wins over Rhode Island and Liberty and a road victory at Northeastern that show the team can win away from home, but those positives are counterbalanced by damaging defeats at major conference sites in Houston and Kansas and by uneven Coastal play that includes setbacks to Hofstra and losses to Monmouth in their meetings. The remaining road dates at Monmouth and Drexel, a trip to Stony Brook and home chances against Elon and Campbell are the clearest opportunities to repair the résumé before the conference tournament. Given the mix of solid nonconference moments and punitive losses in hostile venues the most reliable route to the national field for Towson runs through a strong finish in the Coastal tournament.
