Bob McGinn - Men's Basketball - (1947-50)
Robert McGinn was a two-time All-North State basketball selection in the post World War II years and became the second Catamount to ever earn the coveted All-North Carolina honors in 1948 which included players from present ACC-members. He was a key performer for the 1947 Catamounts that advanced to the NAIA national tournament and never played on a team that posted a losing record. He later enjoyed a distinguished career as a corporate executive and public official. He served two terms on the WCU Board of Trustees, 1979-87, and was recognized for his outstanding leadership and service by two governors.
