What this means for Derek
Building toward recruiting peak — currently D1 Mid-Major.
Recruiting conversations start in earnest at the end of sophomore year (NCAA contact rules let coaches reach out June 15 of sophomore year for most sports including swimming). Your projected rating (1166 → Blue Chip) is the more meaningful number for that window. Continue building broad event coverage — the top-4 weighting rewards multiple strong events.
Maturity context: Your data shows late-developer trajectory — continued steep improvement past age 15. That's exactly the kind of pattern that under-rates well-developed seniors but signals strong upside.
What time drops unlock D1 Power 4
Each row shows the time required in that event alone to push SR Rating Current from 882 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.
