Andrew is home-schooled in Lawrence, Kan. and does not compete in high school competitions in 2013. He has broken 32 National Age Group swimming records since he first hit the pool. Andrew’s 50 free time ranks him 59th in the nation among all elite males.
With the endorsement, Andrew will not be able to compete in NCAA events in the future, something his father, Peter, considered before agreeing to the deal.
Meanwhile, Andrew signed with P2 ife, a nutrition supplement manufacturer.
