Roy Wilson McNeal[1] (June 23, 1891 – May 25, 1976) was an American college sports coach, athletics administrator, and professor. He served as the head football coach at Albany College—now known as Lewis & Clark College—in Albany, Oregon from 1920 to 1921, the College of Puget Sound—now known as the University of Puget Sound—in Tacoma, Washington from 1922 to 1925, and Southern Oregon State Normal School—now known as Southern Oregon University—in Ashland, Oregon from 1927 to 1931. He also coached basketball, baseball, and track at Albany. McNeal later served as professor of geography at Southern Oregon.[2][3]
McNeal attended Henderson-Brown College—now known as Henderson State University—in Arkadelphia, Arkansas, where he earned eight varsity letters in two years. He played at tackle and fullback in football, and ran the 440-yard dash in track. McNeal earned a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Arizona in 1916. At Arizona, he was an assistant to coach Pop McKale.[4]
