What this means for Dana

Borderline D1 Power 4 recruit — D1 Power 4 ceiling.

Recruiting window is active. Your Current (923) is just 27 points below the D1 Power 4 threshold — effectively a D1 Power 4 caliber recruit for evaluation purposes. Your optimistic ceiling projects to D1 Power 4 territory through college junior year. The modest gap between Current and Ceiling reflects college-years upside coaches should weigh in their evaluation — particularly if biological maturation is still ongoing.

Maturity context: The D1 Mid-Major → D1 Power 4 ceiling-range transition is the late-developer story: data signal alone doesn't flag it, but the spread between conservative and optimistic ceilings suggests biological development may not yet be complete. (We're working on a parent-input layer to refine this — see methodology §4.7.)

What time drops unlock D1 Power 4

Each row shows the time required in that event alone to push SR Rating Current from 923 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.
