LIU can attribute much of their success to Malachi Davis, who earned 31 points along with two steals. Davis’ performance made up for a slower contest against Air Force two weeks ago. Another player making a difference was Shadrak Lasu, who dropped a double-double on 11 points and ten rebounds.

Some high-performance offense is likely on the agenda as both are some of the highest scoring teams in the league. Winthrop hasn’t had any problem running up the score this season, having averaged 81.4 points per game. However, it’s not like LIU struggles in that department as they’ve been averaging 75.5. With both teams so easily able to put up points, the only question left is who can run the score up higher.
