What this means for Lily

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 (777–777) shows the projected upside through college junior year — useful for "where will I be when it counts most" conversations.

What time drops unlock D1 Power 4

Each row shows the time required in that event alone to push SR Rating Current from 777 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.
