Samuel Mikulak (University of Michigan) leads the U.S. men's gymnastics team in its quest for gold Monday.

Two athletes with ties to Michigan — Sam Mikulak and Siobhan Haughey — get their chance to win a medal Monday.

The spotlight, however, will shine a bit brighter on Mikulak as he leads Team USA into the men's team gymnastics final as the top seed.

The Americans have won the team gold medal twice — 1904 in St. Louis and 1984 n Los Angeles.
