Real Recruiting Standards · 2025-26
NCAA Division III track & field recruiting standards
These aren't published walk-on standards or estimates. They're the real high-school marks of the 6,175 athletes NCAA Division III programs actually signed in the 2025-26 class — including 48 international signees, aggregated separately. The honest answer to “am I a D3 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.
