OMAHA, Neb. (AP) A Michigan swim coach has been fired after he was arrested in a prostitution sting while attending the U.S. Olympic swim trials in Omaha, Nebraska.

Court records say 41-year-old Kelton Graham was one of 11 people arrested Monday night during an undercover police operation at a west Omaha hotel. The records say Graham, who is from Detroit, pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor solicitation charge Tuesday and was sentenced to a day in jail, which the court credited as being served.

Club Wolverine, which has several swimmers in Omaha for the trials, said in a message sent to club parents that Graham has been dismissed because he'd violated the terms of his contract.

A phone listed for Graham in Detroit rang busy Thursday during several calls by The Associated Press.
