CMU's Romello Ross runs the ball during the game on Dec. 28, 2015 during the Quick Lane Bowl at Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan.
Sophomore running back Romello Ross will miss the 2016 season after tearing his anterior cruciate ligament in practice this week.
"Anytime you lose any player it's tough. You hate to lose anybody," said Head Coach John Bonamego after practice Friday. "Romello was definitely somebody that we were counting on to play a significant role, but when someone goes down it just opens up opportunities for others."
Ross suffered the injury in a non-contact drill during practice while making a jump cut, Bonamego said.
