Golf: Ross return

JAMES ROSS, the 2007 Lothians Championship runner-up from Royal Burgess, is heading home from his freshman year at Michigan State University with a glowing report.

The former Stewart's Melville pupil, who returns on Monday for the summer, was Michigan's top player in the "Big Ten" championship, tying for 16th with rounds of 75, 68, 78 and 73, and was also in the hunt for freshman of the year.
