It looks like Kyle Snyder got an ESPY nomination after all.

After being seemingly snubbed for the ESPY for the Best Male College Athlete, for which Penn State wrestler Zain Retherford was nominated, Kyle Snyder has picked up an ESPY nomination for the Best Male Olympic Athlete.

Snyder, of course, became the youngest U.S. Olympic wrestling champion with his gold medal at the 2016 Rio Olympics. The other nominees are decathlete Ashton Eaton and swimmers Michael Phelps and Ryan Murphy.

Fans can vote for Snyder here. The winner will be announced during the 2017 ESPYs on July 12, beginning at 8 p.m. on ESPN.
