FSU Professor Excels at World Martial Arts Competition

Dr. Robert McGee, an Associate Professor of Accounting in the Master of Business Administration Program at Fayetteville State University (FSU), won a silver medal in forms in the 55 and above age division and took 6th place in weapons in the 18 and above age division (the oldest division for weapons) at the Martial Arts World Championships. McGee is 73.

Many martial arts tournaments have been cancelled because of the Corona virus pandemic. Rather than cancel the all-style Martial Arts World Championship hosted by the World Organization of Martial Arts Athletes and the World Martial Arts Council, they decided to hold a virtual world championship tournament. Candidates recorded their form and submitted it to a panel of judges, who scored the videos on May 1.
