This phage was founded during the Fall Semester of 2025. This sample was founded on August 25th. Sample 2 was found near Oakland Square, which is a grassy tree lot. It was a parking lot near houses. There was pavement surrounding the side, but then in the middle, it was grassy and had a lot of trees. It was a little bit hard to dig through the soil, but then, eventually, as I kept digging, I got good soil. The texture was initially hard and grainy, but it became softer and wetter as I dug deeper into the ground. The temperature outside was approximately 55-60 degrees celsius.

Naming NotesThe origin of the name is derived from the Sigma Chi Fraternity house, where the soil sample was taken.
