During her junior year, she became U-M's first woman All-American in track and field, and as a senior, Neer became the first female athlete from the University of Michigan to win a national title in a track and field event -- winning in the discus at the 1982 Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) outdoor championship.

She was ranked second in the United States in the discus throw in 1985 and again in 1991 and was ranked in the top ten for eleven straight years from 1982 to 1992.
