Why the College Ceiling lineup differs: 100 Fly SCY is improving fastest vs. the NCAA D1 cut, so it ranks into the top 4 at age 21 even though it isn't in today’s top 4. That’s a real recruiting signal — shows which event projects as the strongest college pathway.

What this means for Michael

Foundation years. Focus on broad event development.

Your swimmer's Current rating is 469 (Building Base). College coaches don't look at age-13 times — they look at junior-year times. Track the Projected number; that's what coaches will see when they evaluate in 2-3 years.

What time drops unlock D2/D3 Realistic

Each row shows the time required in that event alone to push SR Rating Current from 469 to 600, holding the other three events fixed. Only physiologically reachable drops (≤15% per event) are shown. In practice swimmers improve across multiple events at once, so real progress will lift faster than these single-event deltas suggest.

No single-event drop within reachable bounds gets 469 all the way to 600. The gap from Building Base to D2/D3 Realistic closes through broad improvement — multiple events moving together. That’s exactly what college coaches want to see; specialists rarely make this jump on one event alone.
