After a 3 year gap with no national championships for Michigan, they have now won 2 in the last 3 weeks. Three weeks ago (03/30/2013), the men’s swimming and diving team won the national championship, and yesterday (04/20/2013) the men’s gymnastics team won another one. That’s 2 national championships in 4 years for the men’s gymnastics team, since they won it all in 2010. That’s also 55 total team national championships for the University of Michigan.
