Was first (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

led

'was first' is the definition.
(to lead is to go first)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for led that I've seen before include "Came first" , "Took by the hand and showed the way" , "Went first to show the way" , "Conducted" , "Emitter of light" .)

I've seen this clue in The Star Tribune.
