Why the College Ceiling lineup differs: 200 Free SCY, 400 IM SCY, 100 Fly SCY are improving fastest vs. the NCAA D1 cut, so they rank into the top 4 at age 21 even though they aren't in today’s top 4. That’s a real recruiting signal — shows which events project as the strongest college pathway.

What this means for Weston

Building Base recruit, peak window.

This is the recruiting window. Coaches are evaluating times within ~6 months of where you sit today. The College Ceiling range (424–728) 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 D2/D3 Realistic

Each row shows the time required in that event alone to push SR Rating Current from 424 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 424 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.
