Ball State has a treasure. The Cardinals lost a horde of veteran talent from their 2020 MAC Championship Game this offseason, yet the team hasn’t taken a step back. One reason why is running back Carson Steele, who has become a midweek MACtion sensation for all spectators.
Steele ranks fourth nationally in rushing yardage with 1,280, and the true sophomore continues to elevate his game every week. In his first midweek MACtion contest of 2022, Steele produced a career-high 192 yards to lead Ball State to a 28-21 road win over Kent State. Seven days later, he shattered that total en route to a new personal-high of 198 yards.
