About Track Recruit Rating

Built by athletes for athletes

We created Track Recruit Rating to demystify the recruiting process and give athletes a data-backed view of how their performances compare to current collegiate standards.

Our Mission

Transparency builds trust. We believe every athlete should understand what different programs value, which marks move the needle, and how incremental progress changes opportunity. Our scoring model blends public performance lists, historical scholarship data, and feedback from college coaches to produce an easy-to-understand snapshot.

How The Rating Works

Every time you enter a personal record, we normalize it against a national benchmark window, then balance your profile with bonus points for range. The result is a 0–100 score and a tier label that mirror how staffers discuss prospects.

  • Benchmarks Updated quarterly using verified indoor/outdoor marks.
  • Program Fit We pair your strengths with schools that emphasize those event groups.
  • Shareable Insights Generate a secure link for coaches, parents, or teammates.

Who We Are

Our team blends former Division I distance runners, high school club coaches, and data scientists who work inside the sport. The product is self-funded and built in our spare time so we can stay unbiased and iterate quickly for athletes.

What's Next

We are actively building out women's specific recruiting tiers, multi-event scoring, and a coach dashboard so programs can securely request marks. Have an idea or noticed something off? Reach out—we read and respond to every note.
