NCAAs
In 2013, Bryant made their first NCAA Tournament appearance, losing 12–7 to Syracuse. That season, Bryant also managed to capture the NEC Conference Regular Season Championship, as well as the NEC Tournament, which earned them an automatic bid.
A season later, in 2014, Bryant made their second tournament appearance after again winning the NEC Tournament. After defeating Siena 9–8 in a play-in game, they faced Syracuse for the second time and managed to avenge their loss of the previous year, pulling off a huge 10–9 upset.
