Nick Baumgartner has competed in the 2010 and 2014 Olympics, this year he is going for the gold!

Nick Baumgartner was born and raised in Iron River Michigan, and from a young age LOVED sports.

Before Nick became an Olympic Snowboarder and World Champion he was an All-American Wrestler and in fact, in 2000 he was the High School Wrestling State Champion.

That was mostly likely one of the first major titles this athlete won but it certainly was not his last!
