I stumbled on an entry on Wikipaedia on the great young but tragic player Tommy Caton.
It claims that Caton holds the record for the youngest player to reach 100 appearances in the football league. He managed it by the age of 19 years and 5 months in 1981. Does anyone know what age Ryan Bennett was when he made it to 100 games for Town? It's got to be close. :|

I worked it out to seven months after his 20th birthday his 100th appearance was made.
I might got my maths wrong though but wont be far out so Caton still ahead.

He was 19 years and 208 days old on the day he played his 100th LEAGUE game for Town. Looks like Tommy Caton did it when he was 1 to 2 months younger.

Mariner One is near enough spot on.
