University of Michigan junior Dylan Bosch has been named Michigan Male College Athlete of the Year by the Detroit Athletic Club (DAC). This makes four years in a row that a Michigan Wolverine male student-athlete has taken home the honors, as Bosch follows wrestler Kellen Russell (2012) and graduated simmer Connor Jaeger (2013, 2014). Former Michigan swimmer Davis Tarwater also was bestowed the honor back in 2006.
The South African Bosch was a key factor in the University of Michigan men’s swimming program’s success this past season, which included the squad winning its fifth consecutive Big Ten title as well as a third-place finish at the NCAA Men’s Championships.
Individually, Bosch earned five-time Big Ten champion honors, as well five-time NCAA All-American status. For his efforts, Bosch was named 2015’s Big Ten Swimmer of the Year and Big Ten Swimmer of the Championships. Over his career, Bosch has earned one national title (200y butterfly in 2014) and is an 11-time NCAA All-American.
