Monday night’s contest between two of the best programs in Washington County didn’t disappoint.

As one of the top teams in 3A West the past few seasons, Linganore has been a benchmark for South Hagerstown to see where it stands.

South took six of the 11 bouts contested, but three forfeits were the difference as Linganore took the CMC Spires win 48-30 in the second match of the tri-meet with Walkersville.
