The results are in! The Aggies placed 21 out of 29 schools and finished 11th in Group Judging. Grace Lettero finished 33rd in the Individual Competition, the highest for a DVU student since 2016.

Eleven students had an unforgettable experience in learning about soils and land-use in the Greater Raleigh region.

Congratulations to Virginia Tech for finishing 1st and the University of Maryland for finishing 3rd, the highest placement from our region.

This display was at the Individual Contest location, the Official Toast for North Carolina. Thanks to Matt Ricker and the group of staff and volunteers at NC State for hosting a great week!

Day 1 along the Fall Zone. A nice mix of Coastal Plain sediments along remnant buried Piedmont residual soils.

The students had the opportunity to see things that they’ve never seen before: Arenic and Grossarenic E horizons, plinthite, and lots of clay.
