What this means for Max
D1 Mid-Major recruit, peak window.
This is the recruiting window. Coaches are evaluating times within ~6 months of where you sit today. The College Ceiling range (841–1166) shows the projected upside through college junior year — useful for "where will I be when it counts most" conversations.
Maturity context: Your late-developer trajectory matters here — make sure coaches understand you're still on the upslope. Bring growth-rate and recent improvement data to recruiting visits.
What time drops unlock D1 Power 4
Each row shows the time required in that event alone to push SR Rating Current from 841 to 950, 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.
