“I’m honoured. I’ve never been elected to a hall of fame. It’s a real thrill. We had some great years up at SFU. It just feels really good and I’m honoured for all the girls who played up there,” McNeill said.
“It (the induction) brought back all the years and all the great kids that played there. I always thought of Simon Fraser as Burnaby’s university.”
