would quitting a sport and picking up a different one affect my college apps???

hs sophmore here, been doing xc since 6th grade and did swim team all through middle school. xc has really been draining me so far and i quite frankly hate it. ive always liked the idea of doing something for four years in high school and not anything less (quitting scares me). doing swim team would have so many more benefits, but i'm afraid if i start swimming and quit xc junior year it'll look inconsistent in my apps (i'm in no way recruitment material in either).

grades are pretty good but honestly i have kinda meh extracurriculars (ik im only a sophmore) and saying im a team captain for 4 years looks pretty good.

im interested in top 10-30ish school, ga tech, northwestern, brown, etc. pls dont give me like "do whatever you love answers".
