I’d suggest he look at Tufts. Not in the middle of nowhere, decent D3 team, engineering as an option.

Union will likely give him merit but checks a lot of those boxes as well.

Several of the other LACS with engineering are D1.

I think one thing to consider is whether he’s excited about swimming in college. It sounds like being a recruited athlete is a way for him to potentially move to the top of the pile at very selective schools, but that means he has to swim. Is that a goal? I think we’re all assuming it is, but that means he’ll be working this process differently.
