"We are excited about having Matt return to the corps this year in the top leadership spot," said corps director Trey Moore. "Matt is a true leader and a petty fine conductor. You need both qualities in a drum major." Souther, a charter member of the corps, is in his third season with Memphis Sound. Matt was the winner of DCI's Division II "Drum Major of the Year" award this past August in Denver.
Chris Goodson is in his second year with Memphis Sound. He marched a mellophone position this past summer. Goodson, a native of Loudon, Tenn., is a member of the University of Tennessee band, where he plays clarinet.
