Weekly Top Performances: LCM Power Points Leaderboard (May 21–27) | Edition 04
-
Memorial Day weekend brought a surge of long course action — and some familiar names returned to the leaderboard alongside fresh faces.
Swim Standards' weekly power points board covers performances entered between May 21–27, 2026, pulling from 110,000+ source rows across nearly 21,000 unique swimmer entries. Rankings are age-adjusted, event-agnostic, and limited to one swim per swimmer per division. Here's the full breakdown.
10 & Under
Girls
Nine-year-old Callie Yue (NCAP/PV) opens the week's leaderboard with a statement swim — a 1:17.54 in the 100 back for 1,006 points, clearing the 1,000-point threshold that's rare at any age, let alone 10&U. Kensington Jones (PASA/PC) follows at 928 points with a 5:21.21 in the 400/500 free, and Bailey Harrell (STAR/FL) rounds out the trio with an 887-point 50 back in 38.08 — the only AAA standard in the group.

Luke Gamino (TCA/FL) is back — and faster. The nine-year-old who topped the Edition 02 boys 10&U board with a 32.92 in the 50 fly returns this week with a 32.79 in the same event for 1,028 points, edging his own previous mark. Austin Ren (KATY/GU) pushes him all the way with a 33.17 for 1,005 points — both nine-year-olds, both AAAA in the same event. Zhecheng Zhu (NOVA/SCS) makes his second appearance on this series' leaderboard, this time as a 10-year-old, slotting third with a 909-point 200 IM in 2:39.50.

Two nine-year-olds both clearing 1,000 points in the same event in the same week is a remarkable coincidence — and a sign of how competitive this age group has become.
11–12
Girls
NOVA/SCS is at it again. Grace Wang and Annabelle Hayes — who went 1-2 in the 200 back during Edition 01 — are back on the leaderboard, this time in different events. Wang leads with a 1,006-point 400 IM in 5:17.32, and Hayes follows at 992 points with a 9:41.17 in the 800/1000 free. Sarah Chiang (PDST/PN) completes a distance-heavy podium with an 18:59.33 in the 1500/1650 free for 982 points. All three earned AAAA and all three are 11 years old.

The NOVA 11-12 girls group is quietly becoming one of the most consistent training groups in the country by this metric.
Boys
Eleven-year-old Jeffrey Qian (AGUA/MR) leads the 11-12 boys with a 36.10 in the 50 breast for 954 points — notably, the only AAA standard among the group's top three this week. Hunter Gumbayan (SRA/FL) follows at 937 points with a 5:05.17 in the 400 IM, and Zachary Ruhnke (M3A/IL) takes third with a 5:34.25 in the same event for 919 points. Gumbayan earned AAAA; Ruhnke posted AAA.

13–14
Girls
Lauren Lonsdale (DART/SN) headlines the 13-14 girls with a 2:14.27 in the 200 IM for 999 points — just one point shy of the four-figure mark, and the strongest score in her division this week. Madison Suchecki (SSC/MA) earns second with a 902-point 200 breast in 2:35.72, and Elaine Luisetti (CCA/SN) takes third with a 900-point 400/500 free in 4:20.69. All three are 14 and all earned AAAA.

Thirteen-year-old Jett Hatchard (OA/UT) turns in one of the week's most impressive individual swims — a 1:00.42 in the 100 back for 1,028 points, the joint-highest score on the entire leaderboard this week. Ethan Reines (SCAR/NJ) follows at 973 points with an 8:23.11 in the 800/1000 free, and Janiel Espinosa (SF/FG) takes third with a 948-point 200 fly in 2:13.86. All three earned AAAA.

Hatchard's 1,028 points ties Gamino for the week's highest overall score — set in a completely different event and age group.
15–18
Girls
Mikayla Tan (SRVA/PC) leads the 15-18 girls with a 995-point 200 breast in 2:26.35 — a sharp long course breaststroke performance at 16. Lucy Velte (EKC/MV) follows at 936 points with a sub-60 100 fly, clocking 59.84, and Emma Hussein (CANY/SCS) rounds out the group with a 935-point 200 IM in 2:16.06. All three earned AAAA — and the top three scores are notably tighter than in previous editions.

The 15-18 boys group produced the week's highest-scoring division, with all three swimmers clearing 1,000 points. Luka Mijatovic (PLS/PC) tops the overall weekly board with 1,033 points on a 3:45.20 in the 400/500 free — a fast, mature distance freestyle at 17. Grant Bellin (KING/PN) is close behind at 1,021 points with a 56.51 in the 100 back, and Andrew Eubanks (TDPS/OR) takes third with a 1,010-point 200 breast in 2:12.59. All three earned AAAA.

A 56.51 in the 100 back long course at that age is a significant data point.
