With the exception of the New York Mets, Ross has called play-by-play for every professional New York metropolitan area sports franchise, including the Yankees of MLB, the Nets and Knicks of the NBA, and Jets and Giants of the NFL. He has also called games for the Americans of the ABA and, in the NHL, for the New Jersey Devils, New York Islanders and the New York Rangers. Outside of New York, he has called games for the Florida State Seminoles and Boston Celtics. Nationally, he has worked for the NFL on NBC, Major League Baseball on CBS Radio, the NCAA Basketball Tournament on Westwood One Radio and as the lead play by play announcer for the 1992 USA Olympic Dream Team with Dick Vitale. Ross's mentor was the legendary Marty Glickman who tutored Ross at around the same time as his better-known pupil, Marv Albert. In fact, in discussing his two star pupils (Albert & Ross), Glickman once noted that Ross was one of the best, if not the best radio play-by-player ever to call a game citing his distinctive voice and ability to make smooth transitions during game play. Further, Phil Rizzuto, one of Ross's broadcasting partners during his three-year tenure with the Yankees, was once quoted as saying that Ross was "The Best Broadcaster" he had ever worked with.{{citation needed|date=July 2012}} Ross attended Florida State University on a basketball scholarship and, while there, called baseball and basketball games for the Seminoles. He currently does weekend sports updates for WINS-AM. In 2009, he was inducted into the NYC Basketball Hall of Fame.[1] References1. ^http://www.nypost.com/p/sports/more_sports/do_espn_execs_really_think_this_ZIh96gypKShoYQhK93QVEK/1{{dead link|date=March 2018}} {{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Ross, Spencer}} 22 : College basketball announcers in the United States|Living people|Year of birth missing (living people)|American Basketball Association broadcasters|American sports announcers|Boston Celtics broadcasters|Florida State University alumni|Florida State Seminoles baseball|Florida State Seminoles basketball|Major League Baseball broadcasters|National Basketball Association broadcasters|National Football League announcers|National Hockey League broadcasters|New Jersey Devils broadcasters|New York Islanders broadcasters|New Jersey Nets broadcasters|New York Jets broadcasters|New York Knicks broadcasters|New York Rangers broadcasters|New York Yankees broadcasters|World Football League announcers|North American Soccer League (1968–84) commentators |
