2-3 girls going to top 25 programs
5-7 girls going to next level 20-60 programs
2-3 girls going to low D1 programs (think MAC, Big South, Northeast)
3-4 girls going to NESCAC or high-quality D3
The rest going to D2 or lower level D3

Look at teams final rankings and it's pretty consistent.

Sometimes West coast, south or midwest clubs may have a few more towards the top and a few more who don't play at all since their rosters tend to be more top-heavy. CT clubs may do a little better since they often have mostly girls who aren't looking for any $$ at all.

B teams like YJB, Heros White, M&D Red may not have any top 25 girls, but will have lots of second-tier lacrosse schools.

Just curious by your calculations/judgement on team ranking what would you expect generally speaking if team is in the 7-15 range?

There is usually a pretty big gap between 7 and 15 in terms of recruiting. 7 are usually loaded across the entire roster while teams around 15 can be top heavy with a few stars or have talent more spread out with lots of depth.

That said, here is my take for an east coast team ranked in the middle of that range.

4-6 girls going to top 25 programs or Ivies
6-10 girls going to next level 25-60 programs
The rest of roster going to high D3 or low non-scholarship D1

Even the top teams only have 6-9 girls going to big time program. Great example is YJ Spallina, one of the best club teams in the past 5 years. They will still have some starters who don't go top 25.
