The high school senior has top times of 4:15.56 in the 500-yard freestyle, 1:34.54 in the 200-yard freestyle and 15:14.40 in the 1650-yard freestyle. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>True Sweetser <\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sweetser may own the coolest name in the class of 2016.

Sweetser is the top rated recruit in the state of Florida and the tenth ranked recruit nationally. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stanford gains another long distance freestyle in Sweetser. He owns top times of 14:49.43 in the 1650-yard freestyle and 4:16.63 in the 500-yard freestyle. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>James Murphy <\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The top rated recruit in the state of Virginia, Murphy is the 12th ranked recruit nationally. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Murphy is a well rounded swimmer that can swim well in events from the 50-yard freestyle up to long distance events. He swims a 4:22.30 500-yard freestyle and a 9:06.02 1000-yard freestyle. Murphy also goes under 50 seconds in both the 100-yard butterfly and backstroke. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Benjamin Ho<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ho is the third ranked recruit in California, arguably the fastest swimming state in the country.
