Long Island University's basketball team is making a remarkable 24-10 season, with Jamal Fuller and Malachi Davis leading the way for the team. They are the top scorers and Toronto high school friends, with Fuller shooting 43.8 percent on 3-pointers and Davis shooting 14.4 points per game. They have been joined by fellow Torontonian Caleb Johnson, Shadrak Lasu and Max Ndlovu-Fraser of Vancouver for the win. The team also brings international love to the team, showing international love in the process. Despite cultural differences, Fuller and Davis have had to explain some of their nation's culinary basics to their American peers about the basics of poutine and pizza in Canada. The Sharks are currently the No. 16 seed in the West Region and will face No. 1 Arizona in San Diego.
