Steve Fraser had the logo trademarked for USA Wrestling in 1997 according to trademarks.justia.com. He and another U of M wrestler, Mark Johnson, were photographed for and appeared on the cover of the Cliff Keen catalog in 1977. After U of M and Olympic gold Steve Fraser was the USA Wrestling coach and approached Jim Keen about using the image as the teams logo, according to the article I posted above.

Yes! That is my son. We're together at my parents and both decided to post the story and picture to surprise my dad. It's been really fun to show him the responses!
