Even a hobbyist would no better.
Google search, "rogerson", it returns 1,710,000 rows, are you seriously
saying you would pass all 1.7 million rows from the SQL Server to the middle
tier or client only to take the first 10?
Do you not think it makes more resource sense to select just the page of
results you need and pass that back from the SQL Server instead? That would
be 10 rows instead of 1.7 million going across that network link to the
middle tier.

Not sure what principles you are drawing that statement from but in my
client server training I was taught to do the processing where it is most
appropriate for resource and maintainability reasons.
