Pressure by Portadown College close to the interval forced Wellington into turning over possession and Neill provided the extra pace to control and convert then add the conversion to his try.
The scoring run continued across the disjointed second half, with the closing 10 minutes leading to an increase on the scoreboard.
Scott McDowell posted an unconverted try before hard-working Stewart Hodgen capped a slick move with another five-point haul.
