How much leeway do you get as a recruited athlete?

how fast are you running? Your academic stats look pretty competitive at a glance, and I’d say if you nail that SAT, you’d have a chance of getting in even without athletics. if you are running on the order of 48/1:55/4:20/9:25 (probably any one or two of those times if you are a mid-d or distance runner. if you are sprinter or thrower, I dunno what the general recruiting standards are), you probably have a very good chance of getting in. Have you corresponded with their coach? he’s probably the best person to ask.
