Projection: need to automatically qualify

Siena’s body of work pairs comfortable wins over conference opposition with meaningful road and neutral successes such as victories at Brown, at American and at neutral Longwood, which demonstrate an ability to win away from home, but that resume is offset by clear setbacks at Indiana and St Bonaventure and by tight defeats at Iona and a home loss to Colgate that leave the team without a marquee victory. The defense and steady results against midlevel foes keep them competitive, yet the combination of damaging losses and the lack of a top-tier scalp makes the most reliable path to the national field run through the conference crown, and the remaining league slate—winnable trips to Niagara and Canisius, home dates with Iona and St Peter’s and a tough road test at Merrimack—gives Siena concrete chances to polish its case before the postseason.
