Wyoming signee Steven Neal to attend JC this fall

Steven Neal, a 6-foot-4 senior from Minneapolis (MN) Patrick Henry who signed with Wyoming, will attended Northeastern Colorado (CO) CC this fall with the hopes of becoming eligible to play for the Cowboys. Neal has yet to post a qualifying test, but plans to take the test again in October.

Steven Neal will join former Henry teammate Zerek Knight at Northeastern Colorado (CO) CC. He averaged 18.8 points, 8.3 rebounds, 7.3 assists and 1.2 steals per game his senior season, while shooting 50.0 percent from the field and 78.5 percent from the free-throw line. He lead the Patriots to three straight state titles as a freshman, sophomore and junior before being upset in the region finals as a senior.

If Neal gets a qualifying score, he would enroll at Wyoming for the second semester. Neal would attempt to graduate in three semesters, if he does not post a score to give him three years of eligibility at Wyoming.
