Real Recruiting Standards · 2025-26

NCAA Division II track & field recruiting standards

These aren't published walk-on standards or estimates. They're the real high-school marks of the 4,681 athletes NCAA Division II programs actually signed in the 2025-26 class — including 204 international signees, aggregated separately. The honest answer to “am I a D2 athlete?”

Median = the middle signee's PR. Range = fastest to slowest mark signed at this level. 1500m/Mile and 3000m marks are shown as 1600m/3200m equivalents. Aggregated from verified meet results.

Division medians don't recruit anyone. Programs do.

A D2 median hides a 20-second spread between the top and bottom of the division. BeastMatch scores your PRs against the actual signing history of every program — free, no account needed.

Standards reflect the marks of the most recent signing class and change every cycle. Recruiting decisions also weigh progression, event needs, academics, and roster spots — a mark inside the range is a conversation, not a guarantee.
