He's the youngest US swimmer to go pro. Phelps was 15 when he went pro, but at that point he was already an Olympian.

Thanks for those links, Ande. Chas Morton still has the 11-12 100y fly and 200y IM records from 1984 (and he wasn't much slower than Ryan Murphy in the 100y back and he had to do the old flip turn). Since he is still in the Top 100 in every single event, I looked to see if there were any older times above him. Taking more time than I care to admit, the best I can tell Chas Morton had NAG records in every single 11-12 scy event but one (50 ***, he missed it by .03). I wonder if he still swims?
