Stevan Micic, who just completed his final season as a Wolverine in 2021-22, was awarded with the bronze medal in the 125-pound men's freestyle.

Micic first began his career at Northwestern in 2014-15 before transferring to Michigan. During his career at Michigan, he took two olympic redshirts and missed the 2020-21 season due to injury.

In his four seasons as a Wolverine, Micic compiled an overall record of 87-19.

The 26-year-old defeated Reineri Andreu Ortega from Cuba in the bronze medal match by a score of 7-1.
