2021 National Soil Judging Contest (continued)
Late nights and busy weekends ensued once again during competition week. Although everyone wished the competition was held in person, the team developed a groove on working together in the UMN livestock pavilion that it was nice to be able to compete in the competition while also still attending classes and work on other academic work. The UMN Golden Gophers placed 5th in overall and 9th in group judging. Team members Morgan Fabian and Geneva Nunes placed 4th and 7th in the individual judging, respectively. After having 2020 nationals cancelled and then being able to participate in the 2021 competition, this created a spark in the team that fuels a fire on hopefully one day placing first overall for nationals.
In May, the UMN soil judging team said goodbye to four talented and extremely loyal seniors that have had lasting impacts on the team: Captain Morgan Fabian, Geneva Nunes, Hannah Anderson, and Christina Berg. We think of you in all our soil pursuits for greatness.
Goodbye seniors!
