A two-year team captain, he ranks second in school history in single-season tackles by a freshman (127). Brcka’s first-year performance earned him captaincy as a sophomore, just the second time in program history and the first in 104 years. A First Team Academic All-American and four-time Academic All-Big 12 selection, he made the Dean’s List every year. Brcka earned his M.D. from the University of Iowa and completed his residency at the Orlando Regional Healthcare System.

Brcka now serves as an Orthopaedic Surgeon with an interest in sports medicine at OrthoAtlanta in Georgia.
