Projection: need to automatically qualify

UNC Wilmington faces a challenging path ahead if they want to secure a spot in the NCAA tournament. They have shown offensive potential, particularly in wins against teams like Campbell and William & Mary, where they scored well into the 80s. However, their defense has vulnerabilities, as evidenced by their losses to Kansas and Howard, where opposing teams broke through for significant point totals. To enhance their standing, winning crucial upcoming games against Campbell and Delaware will be essential. Additionally, maintaining consistency against mid-tier competition will demonstrate their capability to compete at higher levels. Without a strong finish, including a potential run in the conference tournament, they risk being outside the bubble when March rolls around.
