ANALYSIS:
If you're looking for a squad in the bottom quartile of all Division I basketball teams this year, Holy Cross likely fits the bill. They are ranked #275 (out of 351) in the most recent Haslametrics ratings and have a record of 15-20. They are also ranked by this site as the #8 team (out of 10) in the Patriot League (average ranking 248.4).

Holy Cross is not one of the better offensive teams you will find. They are rated #299 in efficiency on that end of the court and only score about 94 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. Holy Cross poses no threat whatsoever to grab rebounds off their own misses. Against AO, the ball-club has a rating of 10.65 in potential points scored off of second chances (329th nationally), and they convert just 4.6% of their second-chance opportunities (ranked 328th) as well. Holy Cross also won't provide opponents much of a scare with their shooting percentage from the inside. The team is ranked 313th in near-proximity field goal percentage, making only 53.5% of their attempts from up-close vs. AO. Moreover, they find themselves in the bottom-50 in overall offensive field goal percentage, converting just 40.1% of their total attempts vs. AO.

Though they rate better on defense than they do on offense, Holy Cross still isn't one of the more capable defensive teams in college hoops. Allowing roughly 106 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #244 in the nation in defensive efficiency. Holy Cross gives up too many chances to easily score off of offensive rebounds. The team allows AO to convert 9.0% of all second-chance opportunities (320th nationally). Holy Cross has also done a pretty poor job this season to prevent opponents from making shots from the inside. The team is ranked 305th in the country in defensive near-proximity percentage, allowing AO to make good on 64.2% of their attempts from close-up.

Holy Cross has been playing much better basketball as of late and is presently ranked 23rd in positive momentum because of it.
