Will Modglin Zionsville Swim Club Zionsville Community High School Zionsville, IN**Verbally committed to Texas** One more massive drop: from 4:22 to 4:15 in the 500 free. Pretty interesting concentration and good return for Florida as I recall them being underrepresented last year. The 100 fly could also turn into a nice third event. In the NCAA, sprint relay weapons are a massivevalue, and Buff fits that Hoffer/Gretchen Walsh/Caeleb Dressel mold thats proven so successful in NCAA scoring. Haughey (lane 5, fourth from the bottom) is pretty arm-driven, but without a lot of tempo. Hes dropped nearly four full seconds in the 200 IM to sit very close to the best in the class there. With that out of the way, lets get to our rankings. (Its also the reason weve got him ahead of our #15 recruit, who is very comparable in short course, but about a second slower in both long course races). (Previous Rank: N/A) Best Times: Just looking at his 200 and 500 free times, Enoch could rank a bit higher in this class. Hes got especially good leg strength and is pretty kick-driven across all four strokes that includes solid underwater kicking which should play in even more to short course. Scroll down to take a look at the nation's top 25 recruiting classes for the 2021 cycle as of Feb. 25, according to the 247Sports Composite. McMullan is also an intriguing butterflyer. Sergile looked more like a distance swimmer in our rankings last year. Maurer also has the best mile in the class, and didnt even get to swim that event in Californias high school season, where he put up a big 500 free drop. Toby Barnett Rockville Montgomery Swim Club Rockville High School Bethesda, MD**Verbally committed to Indiana** Will Scholtz Lakeside Swim Team St. Xavier High School Prospect, KY**Verbally committed to Texas** One thing to watch with Jones will be how he develops as an IMer. We get a good angle on his explosive start, and you get a good sense of Joyces power, even as he works to clean up his breakout a little. Right now, Winkler leads the class in the 100 free in both yards and meters (hes 49.6 in long course meters compared to 49.7 for Diehl). He took a gap year and will enroll with the class of 2022. Alec Filipovic (Previous Rank: #6) St. Charles Swim Team Saint Charles North High School St. Charles, IL**Verbally committed to Texas** Hes also got enough freestyle speed (20.5/45.1/1:37.8) to have some relay upside down the line, too. Verbal commitments are listed where theyve been reported. Brendan Whitfield Lynchburg YMCA Jefferson Forest High School Forest, VA **Verbally committed to Virginia Tech** THE BRITISH INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL HCMC. You get a really good view of Branons excellent streamline and his powerful kickouts. Whats weird is that a lot of swimmers in this class seem to have one event well ahead of the rest. His drop in the rankings is less an indictment of his junior year as a testament to just how many other swimmers had massive time drops to move into the top 20. Marsteiner doesnt have a ton of speed yet, but as we noted above, 500 free times are usually a little misleading when youre looking at high school prospects we see big drops there in late high school and early college, and there arent that many high school sophomores better than 4:25. Itll just take more experience to really blend those two things and when he does, Filipovic is going well under 47. Breaststroke is the odd stroke out. Arizona States Leon Marchand has the fastest time in the Pac-12 this season in six different events. He's not sick of swimming yet. If his backstroke keeps rising, he could definitely build out a good 200 to go along with his 100. Michigan hangs on at No. Best Times: Marsteiner is very much a distance free specialist, and hes the best miler in a very deep class. He could easily develop in the 100 back or 100 fly, and either one would fit nicely in the NCAA format, while giving him even more relay options. Best Times: Papanikolaou is a pure sprinter for the moment, but with 50 and 100 free times like that, plenty of college coaches will be happy to recruit him. Braeden Haughey (Previous Rank: #18) TAC Titans Middle Creek High School Apex, NC**Verbally committed to Virginia** Thats going to make him a powerhouse of a 200/500 type swimmer at the college level. The butterfly events are definitely Gentrys strongest point right now, but this 200 IM race video gives a good look at all four of his strokes (lane 4, blue cap). Heres his career-best in the 100 short course yard breaststroke (lane 5, fifth from the top, in a dark cap). Hes a long ways from having a good third event, but hes so good in his primary two races that it might not matter much, at least from an individual NCAA scoring point of view. Malicki had a great junior year, dropping 1.5 seconds in the 100 breast to push Fan for the top time in the class. 17. That type of multi-stroke range makes you think Modglin should develop into an incredible college IMer, as we tend to see recruits make their biggest drops in the IM races. He leads everyone in the 200 breast by quite a ways, which shows a lot of toughness and experience. Thats a possibility with this group, too, especially with most of our top 5 being great freestylers with intriguing stroke events also in the mix. At this point, Irwin will probably project as a back/fly hybrid swimmer, especially if he keeps improving underwater. Hes also improving as a 200 guy after cutting five seconds. As top recruits continue to give verbal commitments earlier and earlier, were moving up our rankings to help give better context to big recruiting announcements. 14. (Previous Rank: N/A) Heres his lifetime-best long course 50 free (lane 8, bottom of the screen). 1. 11. Class rank: NationalNo. All that said, this class is rapidly becoming one of the best weve ranked as juniors in a long time. Part of the Nord Anglia Education family, the British International School Ho Chi Minh City (BIS HCMC) is the leading school in Vietnam. Lucas probably projects as a 400 IMer and 200 flyer at the NCAA level. Backstroke is strong at the top, but equally thin as you move down the ranks. 4 and Michigan makes an appearance in the top 10 at No. Diggory Dillingham Bend Swim Club Mountain View Senior High School Bend, OR **Verbally committed to USC** 8. While each individual stroke isnt terribly strong in this class, the IM group is. Ethan Harrington Palo Alto Stanford Aquatics Palo Alto High School Palo Alto, CA **Verbally committed to Princeton** Jared was a YMCA and high school swimmer in northern Minnesota, and spent his college years swimming breaststroke and occasionally pretending . Bert Najera Mission Viejo Nadadores Santa Margarita Catholic High School Rancho Santa Margarita, CA **Verbally committed to Cal** This is the second recruiting class in a row that weve called out as very good in sprint freestyle. Diehl dropped almost seven seconds in the 200 back from 1:49.4 to 1:41.9 over his sophomore year. 2. Projecting international recruits often becomes more a discussion ofwhentheyll first join a college program and notwhichprogram theyll join. Our team of swimming experts uses the following college swimming recruiting times guidelines to help recruits and parents understand what schools would be a good fit athletically. Powe actually appears in this same NCSA video we linked for Zuchowski above (Powe is lane 3, black cap, two lanes down from Zuchowski). Check out our recruit ranks before recruiting season opens on the class of 2024 this summer. (Previous Rank: #2) Marcus Papanikolaou Unattached Central Bucks East High School Doylestown, PA heres Hayons best event, the 100 fly (lane 5, black cap). But his IMs have improved enough, too (1:49.2/3:54 to 1:47.5/3:50) to make his lineup choices a little more interesting. . Theres a chance that we disagree with your assessment of their spot in the top 20, and so long as its done civilly, theres no problem with differences of opinions. Both races could probably use some polishing on wall timing at the next level, but thats the kind of detail Branon can definitely hone as a college swimmer. Whitfield is flying up recruiting boards after an amazing junior year. Mullens best short course yards 400 IM is from 2019, so it feels like theres a chance a big drop is coming. Thus, the FloSwimming crew decided to whip up a top 10 recruiting rankings list for the class of 2022. Archive photo via Jack Spitser/Spitser Photography. A bonus video, if only because Hayon really feels like one of our favorite breakout candidates the more film we watch. A year later and hes clearly extended that speed, dropping good time in his 50 while bringing his 100 all the way down to 43.6 among the best in the class. If you made me pick the top overall breaststroker in the class right now, Id probably have four names virtually tied with no great way to pick one. Hes not far out of the top 200 IM time in the class, and is also 2:03.9 in long course meters. Kamal Muhammad Spartans Aquatic Club Lakeside High School Atlanta, GA **Verbally committed to Virginia** Hes the fastest 200 freestyler in this class, and closing in on the 500, too. Zuchowski has firmly taken over as the fastest backstroke in this class, keyed by a massive drop from 1:45.4 to 1:41.6 in the 200 back. But he hasnt quite developed a third event around those two. Hes got the top 200 back time in the class, ranking among the top recruits weve ever ranked there. Haughey had modest drops in distance free, and does have pretty good range from the mile down to the 200 thats great for relay potential. (Previous Rank: #5) Do you consider that in the ranking when looking at the best time? (Previous Rank: #3) He was 49.8 in the 100 fly and 1:51.2 in the 200 fly as of last year, but surges into our top 20 after a seven-second drop in that 200 and a 1.6-second drop in that 100. 4. In this class, in particular, weve got two swimmers who took gap years and/or reclassified into this class. (From 20.4 to 19.8 in the 50 free and 44.6 to 43.6 in the 100 free). Getting under 4:20 in the 500 free is a great step as a high school junior, and Taylor dropped three seconds there since last year. Into specifics: this is a great group of IMers, just like it is on the girls side. 11. Sign In. Were going with Kharun at #3 for a few reasons. Best Times: Zou has an argument to be the best breaststroker in the class right now. Im preparing a class 3 against SwimSwam for not putting my son in the top 20!!! Koebel will arrive on campus this fall with times already fast enough to lead the Rams last season in the distance events. Best Times: It feels like we might see Winkler and Diehl battling for three years over who is the best pure sprint freestyler in the class. Best Times: 1650 free 14:58.94, 1000 free 9:00.96, 500 free 4:20.64, 400 IM 3:47.23, 200 IM 1:48.37, 200 back 1:44.83, 100 back 48.67, 200 free 1:38.29.
