Career
He held numerous Yugoslav records in a sprint breaststroke double, and later represented Yugoslavia at the 2000 Summer Olympics. He challenged seven other swimmers in heat four, including two-time Olympians Valērijs Kalmikovs of Latvia and Arsenio López of Puerto Rico. He raced to the fourth seed by a 0.62-second deficit behind joint winners Kalmikovs and Lopez in 1:04.64, worthy enough for a Yugoslav record.
Savcic failed to advance into the semifinals, as he placed forty-second overall on the first day of prelims.
Since 2001, Savcic currently resides in the United States, where he works as part of an age group coaching staff for the Lakeridge Swim Team in Reno, Nevada.
