2026 Tournament PreviewThe last time the Mountain Hawks were in the NCAA Tournament in 2012 they famously upset Duke as a 15 seed. This year, Lehigh fans even chanted "We want Duke" in the closing moments of the Patriot League tournament final. They won't get Duke this year, but if they survive the 16-seed play-in game in the South, No. 1 Florida awaits. Lehigh is one of the lowest-ranked teams in the field with a NET rating of 275 and landing outside the top 250 nationally in both offensive and defensive efficiency, per KenPom. They're also notably poor on the offensive glass, with a bottom-15 rebounding rate, as 6-9 center Hank Alvey (15.0 ppg, 6.9 rpg, 1.8 bpg) is the only rotation player taller than 6-8. On the bright side, junior point guard Nasir Whitlock (21.0 ppg) is a star, hitting 44.5 percent from the perimeter for a team that ranks 38th nationally in three-point percentage (36.5). Despite that possible equalizer, chances are thin that Lehigh repeats its upset history.
