Well, Ball State never trailed against this NAIA opponent, which is good, because that's what you're supposed to do. There was also a Majok Majok double-double (18 points, 17 rebounds) so all is right with the world. Freshman Marcus Posley added 14 points and five assists, easily his best game of his young career. The Cardinals just had five turnovers in the game, making this real simple for everybody.
A test more true to their talent awaits Saturday as 3-4 Ball State plays South Dakota.
