The Rick Neill Memorial has been run as one of the premier High School Cross Country meets in North Texas for the past 15 years. This year we have moved the race to a post season race and opened it up to the public. It is not your typical road race! It is run along the shores of Lake Lewisville on a traditional cross country course. The out and back style race offers a great challenge to the runners and very good race viewing for the spectators. The signature feature of the course is a classic 200 meter uphill sprint to the pine tree lined finish line.
