Michigan NACDA Summary by Sport

Stanford's Strength & Conditioning Program

In the Fall, it was the worst start to the NACDA season since this championship began in 1993 for the Wolverines, 6th in the Big Ten and 47th Nationally. None of the Fall sports scored any points for the NACDA trophy except the Men's and Women's Cross Country team with 11th and 17th place finishes for 122 points. The Women's Cross Country team was ranked #1 most of the season, but a foot injury to defending Big Ten individual titlist, Erin Finn, ended the team's hopes for a Big Ten and NCAA Championship as the team placed 18th at the NCAA finals. David Brandon resigned as Athletic Director on October 31, and Brady Hoke was fired as Football Coach on December 2.

Dylan Bosch

In the Winter, the Men's Swimming & Diving Team won their 5th Big Ten Championship in a row. Bruno Ortiz led the squad with 6 Big Ten titles, two in the 100 yard freestyle and breaststroke and four in relays. Dylan Bosch participated in five championships and won Big Ten Swimmer of the Year, three individual and two in relays. Paul Powers was involved in four championships. Overall, 11 squad members won Big Ten titles, and earned 1st Team Big Ten status. The Wrestling Team earned 5 All-Americans: Adam Coon, NCAA Runner-Up, Brian Murphy, Rossi Bruno, Conor Youtsey, and Captain Max Huntley. Coon also won the University Nationals Freestyle Title, and Bruno was Runner-Up. In Track & Field, Cindy Ofili repeated as Big Ten 60 Yard Hurdles Champion. Chris Maye, a former Wolverine Football Walk-on running back from Union City, won the Big Ten 60 Yard Dash Championship; a title that eluded former Michigan Quarterback Denard Robinson. Mason Ferlic also earned another Big Ten Championship. Domenic Abounader won the Big Ten Championship at 184 lbs. for the wrestling team. The Women's Basketball Team advanced to the Semi-Finals of the NIT. The Women's Gymnastics Team earned second at their Regional and advanced to the Top 12 for the 22nd of 23 seasons in a row.
