Konstantin Markelov Is among Winners of Russian Rectors Shooting Sports Championship

The 4th Rectors Shooting Sports Championship is dedicated to the 76th anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War. The shooting range of the MGIMO sports facilities became the platform that brought together Russian rectors.

The heads of higher educational institutions by their own example show the students how to lead a healthy lifestyle and always be ready for labour and defense of the Fatherland.

The competition is being held under support of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation, the Moscow Regional Branch of the Russian Student Sports Union and the Council of Rectors of Moscow and Moscow Region.

The championship was traditionally held on April, 19-23 at the shooting range of MGIMO University of the Russian Foreign Ministry. The rector of ASU showed excellent results, which is not surprising — he has headed the Federation of Bullet Shooting and Trap Shooting of Astrakhan Region for many years.

Konstantin Markelov took the honorable third place in the overall ranking, losing only a few points to the winner.
