Merrillville’s David Neville & Team Score Gold

Filed Under Beijing Olympics 



Merrillville’s David Neville and Team USA score a gold medal in the 4×400 meter relay at the Beijing Olympics.

I noticed the electronic sign on Taft Street between Broadway and 93rd Avenue had a congratulatory message for David Neville on his and Team USA’s win in Beijing. People are pretty excited to have a local Olympic gold medal winner!

Don’t forget that David Neville also won a bronze medal in the 110 meter hurdles at Beijing.
