On Wednesday, it was announced that WVU Athletics has landed a new partnership with an in-state sponsor which includes a WVU-themed paint job that will debut this weekend in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series.
The Mountaineers have inked the sponsorship with Grant County Mulch , a company based in Petersburg, W.Va. Founded in 1986 by Verlin Larry Berg and his wife Janie, Grant County Mulch is a family-owned business with ten plants and distribution centers located across Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and West Virginia. As a part of the deal, they will become known as the "official mulch supplier" for WVU Athletics.
