Brad Teague is in his third year as the head of the Delta State University
Department of Athletics.
Teague hit the ground running in his first year as the director of athletics at DSU,
spearheading several fundraising projects that have led to the construction of the
new Billy Dorgan, Jr. Student Performance Center and the J.A. “Bud” Thigpen, Jr.
Baseball Annex.
DSU’s baseball program posted a banner year in Teague’s first year as athletic
director, winning their first-ever NCAA National Championship. Additionally, the
women’s basketball team, men’s and women’s tennis teams, golf team, and men’s
and women’s swimming and diving teams all qualified for NCAA post-season
competition. A total of nine of DSU’s thirteen sports competed in NCAA Championships
during the 2003-04 seasons.
No stranger to Delta State athletics, Teague has been associated with the
Statesmen athletic program since his days as an All-American pitcher for coach Bill
Marchant from 1988-92. He currently ranks second on the DSU all-time career
victories list with 29, and in career appearances with 63. His 13 wins in 1991 rank
fifth all-time in the DSU single season record book. In 1991, Teague was named to
the All-GSC First Team, ABCA All-South Region Squad, and ABCA First-Team All-
American. Teague repeated the feat following his 1992 campaign, and claimed the
coveted Gulf South Conference Commissioner’s Trophy.
Teague began his professional career as the Assistant Director of the DSU
Alumni Foundation in August of 1992, a post he would hold for four years. In June
1996, Teague moved to the University of Mississippi, assuming the post of Assistant
to the Athletic Director. In July of 1998, he became the Associate Director of the Ole
Miss Loyalty Foundation.
A native of Jackson, Teague is married to the former Gina Beach of Tunica.
They have two sons, Parker (6) and Cooper (1), and one daughter, Berris (4).
