Scotch Corner at Davis & Elkins College, West Virginia

Davis & Elkins College at Elkins, West Virginia has more Scots on its golf roster than any other in the States.
For example, the college squad for a spring trip to Florida includes:
Alasdair Forsythe - Sophomore from Glasgow.
Robert McCleneghan - Freshman from Glasgow.
Craig Marshall - Freshman from Fife.
David Shields - Freshman from Glasgow.
Colin Sutherland - Freshman from Crail, Fife.
Christopher Young - Freshman from Cardross.
Plus one from England:
Samuel Oliver - Freshman from Bedlington.

Team organiser Scott Goddard, who travelled over to Scotland to talent scout at last year's Scottish boys' championship at Royal Aberdeen, is the man who favours loading his roster with Scottish talent.
