How do I stack up, and how can I improve?

I'm a sophomore in high school, and although I had no experience swimming competitively, I decided to go out for my school team (my school is so small that they don't cut for any sports). At the beginning of the season (about two weeks ago), we had time trials for the team. In that time trial, my time for 50 yard freestyle was 42.0 seconds. Yesterday, in the season's second meet, I swam competitively for the first time. I swam third in the 200 yard freestyle relay, and my individual time was 37.6 seconds. How do I stack up, and how can I improve? Thank you.
