The Virginia Tech Soil Judging Team prepares for the National Collegiate Soils Contest.
The team qualified for the national competition after taking second place at the regional contest at Clemson University in South Carolina in October.
Last year, the team won the competition, which took place at The Ohio State University in Marysville, Ohio, beating 20 others teams.
The contest will be held at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater in March.
