What this means for Sydney
Building toward recruiting peak — currently Early Career.
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 (406 → Building Base) is the more meaningful number for that window. Continue building broad event coverage — the top-4 weighting rewards multiple strong events.
What time drops unlock Building Base
Each row shows the time required in that event alone to push SR Rating Current from 384 to 400, 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.
| Event | Current | Target | Δ |
|---|---|---|---|
| 200 Breast SCY | 2:58.93 | 2:52.96 | −5.97s |
| 100 Breast SCY | 1:22.85 | 1:20.02 | −2.83s |
