A real ironman of Roanoke College football, Neese played both offense and defense as a lineman in the early 1920's.
Captain of the 1921 team, and the "hardest playing man on the squad." In earlier years, he played pulling guard on the varsity. A teammate said that Neese once laid claim to 13 unassisted tackles in one game.
Quite successful after graduating from Roanoke College, Neese spent nearly fifty years as a physician in the Philadelphia area.
