Igor Khuzeykin

Treasurer

Hey, my name is Igor. I am a first year student at UNH majoring in Civil engineering. This is my first year not only training in Tae Kwon Do, but actually training in any martial arts at all. I have always wanted to do kick boxing but could never afford it. When looking over the list of club sports here at UNH, I stumbled upon Tae Kwon Do and immediately became interested. I am very happy with my decision and the best part is, I can afford it! As treasurer, I hope to keep up the funding, making this amazing sport affordable and more interesting for all of you

Matt Wilkening

Matt is a freshman at UNH, majoring in mechanical engineering. Matt enjoys diving, drawing, video games (COD), and a bit of airsoft now and then. About a year ago, Matt earned his first degree and sensei badge in Shaolin Chi Sao Kempo Karate; and has entered numerous Massachusetts state tournaments, placing about ten times in forms and sparring (but only 1st place 3 times). The fancy kicks have always been what interested Matt, no matter how difficult they may seem; and that is why Matt loves Taekwondo!
