D2 / NAIA scholarship level. Strong marks with room to grow. Recruiting visibility increasing.
D3 / JUCO level or shows clear upward trajectory. Coaches are watching your development.

WHY RSP RATINGS MATTER
Verified by a U.S. Olympian
Every single mark is personally reviewed. No self-reported, unverified times make it into the system.
Grade-Adjusted
A sophomore running 11.0 is more impressive than a senior at 11.0. Our formula accounts for development trajectory.
Multi-Event Bonus
Athletes who score well across multiple events earn a bonus — versatility is what college coaches want.
No Kid Left Behind
Below 2 stars, athletes see "Developing" with a progress bar — never a demoralizing low number. Every athlete sees a path forward.
