Neil Everett (born May 18th 1962 as Neil Everett Morfitt) is a sportscaster for ESPN. He is the co-anchor of the West Coast edition of ''SportsCenter'' alongside Stan Verrett. ==Early years== Born in Portland, Oregon, Everett was raised in Spokane, Washington and graduated from its Lewis and Clark High School in 1980. He was a two-sport varsity starter for the Tigers in football and basketball, named to the all-city team in football at guard, and played on the defensive line as well. Undersized in the late 1970s, he admits that he was "king of the cut-back block." While in high school, Everett wrote a letter to the editor criticizing a Spokane music critic's review of a Ted Nugent concert. After high school in eastern Washington, Everett attended college in Oregon. He started at Willamette University in Salem, then transferred to the University of Oregon in Eugene and graduated in 1984.〔 He was initiated as a member of Beta Theta Pi fraternity at Willamette and continued that membership at Oregon. While he was a student in Eugene in 1983, his mother Jackie, a high school teacher, died from cancer at age 45. The use of his middle name as a professional surname is a tribute to his mother, a UO alumna and Astoria native, who would call him by his first and middle name when his behavior was less than optimal.〔〔 His stepfather, Dave Robertson, was a longtime high school basketball coach at Shadle Park and won the state title in 1981, led on the court by Mark Rypien.〔 A math teacher, Robertson later coached at Gonzaga Prep. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Neil Everett」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
