ANALYSIS:
If you're looking for a squad in the bottom quartile of all Division I basketball teams this year, Hartford likely fits the bill. Ranked 335th overall (out of 351) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 9-23. Of the nine schools in the America East (average ranking 226.4), they're currently ranked as the worst team in the conference.

Hartford has one of the most anemic offenses around. They rank 337th in efficiency on that end of the court and score fewer than 90 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Hartford will have a really tough time winning games when taking into consideration their shooting percentage near the basket. The team is ranked fourth from the bottom in near-proximity field goal percentage, making only 48.7% of their attempts from up-close vs. AO. Moreover, they find themselves in the bottom-25 in overall offensive field goal percentage, converting just 38.7% of their total attempts vs. AO. Hartford is also one of the more deficient teams in the nation as it pertains to scoring off of offensive rebounds. Against AO, the team converts only 4.8% of all second-chance opportunities (324th nationally), and with a rating of 11.19, they're 317th in potential points scored off of the offensive boards as well.

Hartford doesn't rate much better on defense than they do on offense. Allowing roughly 111 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #313 in the nation in defensive efficiency. Hartford gives up far too many offensive rebounds and second chances to their opponents. The club has a rating of 17.35 vs. AO in potential points allowed off of second chances (335th nationally), and they let AO convert a healthy 8.8% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked 325th) as well. Hartford also does an extremely poor job to deny the opposition behind the arc. They rank 332nd nationally in defensive three-point percentage, allowing AO to make 39.5% of their attempts from afar.

Hartford has recently performed below their norm from an efficiency standpoint. The team is currently ranked 304th in the country in positive momentum.
SORTABLE SCHEDULE / RESULTS:

Against foes that have a potential point rate off steals vs. AO greater than 9.97, Hartford performs above their norm 73% of the time. Against the remaining opposition, the team performs above average 38% of the time.
