MUNCIE, Ind. -- For the third time this season, Ball State fifth-year senior Tahjai Teague has been recognized with MAC West Division Player of the Week honors.
The Indianapolis native, who averaged 22.0 points and 10.5 rebounds over the Cardinals' two games last week, shared the award with Toledo's Marreon Jackson.
Teague scored a season-high 25 points and grabbed nine rebounds last Tuesday against Buffalo, connecting on 11-of-16 from the floor to lead the Cardinals to an 88-68 victory over the two-time defending league champion.
He then recorded his fifth double-double of the season with 19 points and 12 rebounds Friday against early MAC co-leader Akron.
