By the way- check out this Montana Sports report on Neil via YouTube. As reporter Grace Lawrence shares, Neil is a Bozeman senior who has already committed to the University of Washington:
Wasn't that video of his run in Boise incredible? I remember as a high school kid I had no desire to be a cross country runner. Why run if you didn't have a basketball or football in your hand, I figured. After joining the military following the 9-11 terror attacks, I wished I had run cross country as a kid. I would have been better prepared for those 5 mile runs that's for sure. One of my favorite 5-milers was in Missoula, Montana running along the Clark Fork River when it was sub-20 degrees out and your eyelashes would be covered in frost.
