On Friday, we traveled to Inwood, West Virginia as defending champions to compete in the 2017 Musselman Duals. The tournament featured 20 teams from Maryland, West Virginia and Virginia. The action began with pool competition on Friday afternoon.

Our first match of the tournament was against Clarke Co., VA. We have a long history of tough battles with this team, but their numbers are down and they could not overcome the forfeits. The Rams won round 1 by the score of 57-22. In the next round, we faced off against a team we had never competed against in a dual meet, Walt Whitman high school from down state Maryland. Whitman had nearly a full team but the Rams were in control from the beginning, scoring a 59-10 victory.

The final two rounds on Friday night were against two local WV teams, Hedgesville and Berkeley Springs. First up were the Eagles from Hedgesville and the results were the same as the first two rounds, this time an impressive 69-12 victory. In the final match of the night, the result was the same. Southern 57, the Indians of Berkeley Springs 16.

Day two began Saturday morning with the final match of pool competition, a rematch from last season with Spring Valley, WV. Last year the battle was close throughout with Southern losing in the end. This season's battle was a bit different. Southern built a 36-15 lead and cruised to a 54-24 victory to win pool C with a 4-0 record.

| Jake E. was 8-1 with 7 pins |
At that point, the Rams were four wins away from the tournament championship. The top teams in each pool were set to face off for the tournament championship. First, we defeated Winfield, WV 54-24 and then took care of Millbrook, VA 66-12. The final two matches of the tournament ended up with the same results, a 51-28 victory over George Washington, WV and a 62-18 win over Eastern View, VA in the final match. The Southern Rams ended the weekend with a perfect 9-0 record and were able to defend the tournament championship.
