USA Swimming has finalized its leaderboard thus far for the Winter 18 & under National Championships going on throughout the United States from December 1 – 13. Through the two weeks with a lot of swimming going on, USA Swimming has finalized the leaderboard so coaches and swimmers can see where they stack up against the other swimmers competing across the country when the COVID-19 pandemic prevents them from competing in a normal Juniors environment.

NC State freshman James Plage won the 500 while fellow Wolfpack rookie Michael Moore took the 400 IM. Virginia Tech freshman Youssef Ramadan won the 50 and 100 free.

Lukas Miller, also in his first season at NC State, had the fastest time in the 200 free in swimming at the UNC Invite over the weekend, as Texas freshman Zac Van Zandt had the fastest time in the 100 fly in Texas’ Invite with TCU. The Longhorns had another champion on the weekend, albeit from 2021 commit Anthony Grimm in the 100 backstroke.

Indiana commit Josh Matheny joined the winner’s circle over the weekend with a national age group record in the 200 breaststroke, surpassing fellow Hoosier commit Luke Barr in both the 100 and 200 leaderboard.

Virginia Tech commit Landon Gentry won the 200 butterfly with an impressive swim of 1:43.0 as he will join the Hokies in the fall of 2022 in the rapidly improving Atlantic Coast Conference. Virginia commit Jack Aikins of Swim Atlanta took the 200 backstroke over the weekend in surpassing NC State freshman Michael Moore with a 1:40.92.

Uncommitted Baylor Nelson of Swim MAC Carolina and Liam Custer of Sarasota YMCA Sharks were the only non-committed swimmer to win an event on the weekend as Nelson took the 200 IM with a 1:45.04 and Custer smashed the national age group record in the 1650 at 14:37.86.
