Caleb Trelford has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the Clock: a personal-best single of 2.84, set at DFW Cubing Summer 2023, puts him in the top 0.57% of the 32,048 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 55th in the United States. Until March 2023, no official Clock solve in the world had been that fast. Across 25 competitions since August 2015, he has put 462 official solves on the record across ten events.

His Clock best has come down from 5.15 in December 2021 to 2.84, a 45% improvement. Caleb has entered 25 competitions, more competitions than 98% of everyone who has ever competed.

Reading this page: a single is one solve's time · an average is the middle three of five solves, best and worst discarded · a PB is a personal best · a DNF (did not finish) is an attempt with no valid result: a popped piece, an unsolved face, an over-limit memorisation · top X% compares against everyone ever ranked in that event, which is fairer than raw rank because event pools differ tenfold.
