U-M Athletics
Those Who Stay Will Be Champions
It's great to be a Michigan Wolverine! University of Michigan’s rich athletics tradition began in 1865 and continues to this day, with the Wolverines claiming more than 50 national championships in 12 different sports. In fact, no other NCAA Division I program boasts more national titles in hockey or men's swimming and diving than the Wolverines.
Recent examples include a Big Ten Tournament title in men's basketball in March 2025 and a College Football Playoff (CFP) National Championship in January 2024. Wolverine dynasties have developed in football, men's swimming and diving, and ice hockey.
