The team will travel to Milan and to Bormio in Northern Italy, near the border of Switzerland.
The All-Star Team will include players such as Reggie Jesse (St. John's), Durelle Brown (Manhattan), Jermaine Hall (Wagner), David Graves (Notre Dame) and Casey Sanders (Duke). The squad will be coached by George Bucci.
Shine, a 6-0 point guard, was a key reserve for the Pirates last season, but gained notoriety for his career-best performance in the win over Temple which vaulted Seton Hall into the NCAA Sweet 16. Shine scored 26 points on 7-of-11 shooting from three-point range and hit the game-winner with 18.9 seconds left.
Shine averaged 7.7 points per game and 1.9 assists last season in 31 games.
