Jerome's future bright for Liberty golfer Jerome
Liberty High School standout Jerome, who finished second at the state tournament in Austin after a pair of state titles, will be honored Friday as scholar athlete of the year in golf by the Houston Athletic Committee.

Jerome, who began playing at six and started on the tour from age 10, reflects on his putting as his main weakness and notes his high school state title as a key career highlight.

DiMaggio argues livelier balls drive rising homers
Joe DiMaggio suggests bouncier baseballs, not simply stronger players, explain the record pace of home runs. He cites Orioles hitting 58 in May, Mark McGwire and others with 19 homers, and notes his own 56 game hitting streak remains a major mark, while praising Robin Ventura’s 58 game streak at Oklahoma State.
