Gates Construction; Cody Alward, Alward Masonry, Rockwell; and Marco A. Gracia, Gates Construction. The Top Ten scores ranged from 157 to 169 points out of a possible 180.
Contestants were given two hours to complete a predetermined project later scored for plumb, level, square and range, measurement, correct design, manipulation, tooling and neatness, full joints and production. NCMCA State President Danks Burton of Pinnacle Masonry in Cary served as head judge.
"The contest is a good opportunity for our guys to come together with peers from other companies - and even peers within our company they may have never met - to measure how their skills compare with each other," says Sam McGee, President of McGee Brothers.
NCMCA members provided approximately $10,000 worth of tools and cash, which was divided among all the contestants. As the contest winner, Morrison was presented the "David R. Sigmon Award" for top score, $600 in cash (traditionally matched by the employer), an MK Diamond masonry saw and a wheelbarrow full of tools. NCMCA members also donated equipment, labor and materials.
Contest Chairman Wayne Starr of Griffin Contractors in Morganton expressed appreciation to host Pine Hall Brick, the NCMCA Triad Chapter and all of the sponsors of the contest for helping to make the event a success.
