This will be Bisek's first time serving as a World Team coach since joining the Northern Michigan University Olympic Training Site as assistant Greco-Roman coach last November. Although this will be his debut as a World Team coach, Bisek is familiar with competition at the World Championship level. As an athlete, he earned bronze medals at both the 2014 and 2015 World Championships, competing at 75 kg/165lbs.
The NMU-OTS squad qualified four athletes to be on the eight-man team during the U23 UWW World Team Trials held in Rochester, Minn., October 6-8.
