Hi!
I'm 16 years old and am swimming on my high school team. My main events are the 100 fly, 500 free, 100 free.
I'm 1:08 in 100 fly
6:03 in 500
1:00 in 100 free
I've been swimming on teams for a very long time. I was on a club team for about 5 years, but then quit. I hope that I will be able to be on a college team, but I'm not sure if I will be good enough by then. What do you think? What sort of times do I need to be able to swim in college?

Swimming at the collegiate level is a very big dog world, but anything is possible. Here are the walk on standards for a very small Division II school in my town so you can have a few numbers to ponder. Swim hard and keep your nose to the grind stone and anything can happen.
