This time I'm returning to the grind as a professional swimmer. Will definitely miss collegiate swimming and racing with my boys. Fight on!

Morozov made waves at the NCAA Championships this spring by winning both the 50y and 100y sprint titles as well as anchoring the champion 4x100y relay team. He also posted a record split in the 4x50y relay.
"We are proud that Vlad can continue his dream as a professional swimmer," said USC swimming head coach Dave Salo. "He has made an unrivaled impact on our program, and we will continue to work with him to impact the world of swimming. We will miss his athletic contributions to the Trojans, but his impact will continue."
