Redshirt Freshman Does All the Little Things for the Cards
Muncie, Ind. - It was a long wait for Ball State basketball freshman Tahjai Teague.  The 2015 Indiana All-Star came to the Cardinals with much fanfare last fall, arguably as the most high profile recruit to Muncie in many years.  Teague redshirted last year, however, opting to workout, develop, lift and improve as a 17- and 18-year old freshman.  This season his impact's been felt.
As a redshirt rookie, Teague is 13th in the MAC in rebounds and fifth in blocked shots, a sound rim protector the Cardinals have lacked in recent seasons.  He's also ranked highly in field goal percentage at various points throughout the year and he can shoot the three if needed.  It's a unique mix of skills that make Teague an incredible asset to the Cardinals.
Ball State All-Access reporter Dylan Thompson sat down with Teague to talk about his development and role this season with Ball State.
