2025-26 Akron Team Stats

2026 Tournament PreviewAkron finished the year on a 19-1 run to win the MAC tournament title and automatic bid. The Zips don't have a Quad 1 win, playing Purdue within 20, and losing tighter games to Yale, Miami (OH) and Troy, which resulted in a 54 NET ranking. Coach John Groce's team does a lot well, however, primarily on offense. The Zips rank top-15 in both two- and three-point field-goal percentage, with four players averaging double figures, led by senior point guard Tavari Johnson (20.1 ppg, 5.0 apg). Johnson, Shammah Scott (12.7 ppg) and Bowen Hardman (7.9 ppg) each have made 75-plus treys for a top-10 team nationally in three-pointers made per game. Down low, 6-9 senior Amani Lyles (14.6 ppg, 8.0 rpg) takes care of business, but he's the tallest rotational player by three inches, as Akron ranks 350th in average height. That leads to struggles with defensive rebounding (152nd) and perimeter defense (253rd). Akron needs a favorable matchup to pull off an upset.
