Wind-assisted performances will not be accepted for 2012 U.S. Olympic Trials qualifying. There will be no adjustment for marks made at altitude. Qualifying marks must be attained in a 2012 U.S. Olympic Trials event. No qualifying marks will be allowed using alternate events, except for the men's Mile run as follows: An appeal to use a Mile qualifying mark for the 1500 will be accepted only if the mile mark was made during the 2012 season, from Sunday, January 1, 2012 through Sunday, June 17, 2012, and the mark is 3:54.00 or better. An Athlete must be U.S. citizen and eligible to represent the United States in international competition, as well as being a U.S. citizen on the date of Declaration for the 2012 U.S. Olympic Trials in that event - this date being 48 hours prior to the first day of competition in the event.

Each qualified entrant in each event should submit a 2012 season best (January 1, 2012 – June 17, 2012) performance, if one exists, whether it meets the qualifying standard or not. Seeding for the first round of competition is based, first, on all 2012 season performances in rank order, followed by any 2011 season performances, even if they do not meet the qualifying standard (Rule 166-1.(d) i ). Note that a 2011 season mark may qualify an individual into the competition, but will not be used for seeding purposes when a 2012 season mark exists. c) ……..Qualifiers Qualified Automatically(A) >7000 and Provisionally(B) 7600 [Jan 1, 2011 - June 17, 2012] USA Qualifiers Standards: Olympic Games: A: 8200, B: 7950 US Olympic Trials A: 7900, B: 7600 ------ Bryan Clay Asics defending Olympic champ 8729 Ashton Eaton Ore e TC USA, Eugene, 6/23-24/11 8689 Trey Hardee Nike Hypo-Bank, Götzis 5/28-29/11 8118 Mike Morrison California NCAA I, Des Moines 6/8-9-10/11 8083 Curtis Beach Duke NCAA I, Des Moines 6/8-9-10/11 8067 Isaac Murphy Texas Texas R, Austin 3/28-29/12 8011 Ryan Harlan unat USA, Eugene 6/23-24/11 7996 Miller Moss Clemson NCAA I, Des Moines 6/8-9-10/11 7955 Kevin Lazas Arkansas NCAA I, Des Moines 6/6-7/12 7932 Wesley Bray unat Texas R, Austin 3/28-29/12 7914 Gray Horn Florida NCAA I, Des Moines 6/8-9-10/11 7910 Joe Detmer unat Walton, Columbia 5/17-18 7903 Michael Ayers Georgia NCAA I, Des Moines 6/8-9-10 /11 7900 Automatic Standard 7892 Gunnar Nixon Arkansas NCAA I, Des Moines, 6/6-7/12 7862 Jack Szmanda Minnesota Big 10, Madison 5/11-12/12 7840 Chris Randolph Sketchers Sam Adams, S Barbara 4/2-3/12 7840 Jake Arnold Asics TGA, Dallas 6/2-3/12 7832 Dave Grzesiak Wisconsin Big 10, Madison 5/11-12/12 [18] 7793 Dakotah Keys Oregon Pac 12, Eugene 5/5-6/12 7750 Eric Broadbent HPC-e Mt Sac R, Azusa, 4/18-19/12 7742 Jeremy Taiwo Washington Pac 10, Tucson 5/6-7/11 7739 Derek Steinbach Wisconsin Big 10, Madison 5/11-12/12 7736 Chris Helwick unat USA, Eugene 6/23-24/11 7721 Matt Johnson unat TGA, Dallas 6/2-3/12 7705 Corbin Duer unat Mt SAC Open, Walnut 5/26-27/12 7684 Clark, Mat unat TGA, Dallas 5/2-3/12 7679 Nick Adcock unat Thorpe Cup, Chula Vista 8/13-14/11 7636 Tim Wunderlich unat, Warrensburg TGA, Dallas 5/2-3/12 7635 Heath Nickles Ohio State Big 10, Madison 5/11-12/12 7632 Nick Huber Cornell Heptagonals, Phila 5/5-6/12 7630 Jeff Mohl Montana St Big Sky, Bozeman 5/9-10/12 7629 Dan Gooris N Iowa NCAA I, Des Moines 6/6-7/12 7616 Jay Cato Wisconsin Mt Sac R, Azusa 4/18-19/12 [33] 7600 Provisional Standard Total: 33 qualifiers d)….Website listing results 1. www.flashresult.com 2. www.decathlonusa.typepad.com (I’ll try to post results and story as soon after the meet each day as possible) Page 3 SECTION TWO: RECORDS Decathlon Individual Event Records World Records (7000 point minimum) 100m 10.22 Chris Huffins/USA Atlanta(OT/USA)(8546)+0.9) 06/22/96 LJ 8.22 (26-11.75) Erki Nool/EST Tallinn, EST (8362)(+3.0) 06/15/96 SP 19.17(62-10 3/4) Edy Hubacher/Switzerland Berne (7405h) 10/04/69 HJ 2.27 (7-5 1/2) Rolf Bielschmidt/GDR Jena (7245h) 09/30/77 Christian Schenk/GDR Seoul (OG) (8488) 09/28/88 400m 45.68 Bill Toomey/USA Mexico City (OG) (8193) 10/18/68 110mH 13.47 Frank Busemann/GER Atlanta (8706) 08/01/96 DT 55.87 (180-5) Bryan Clay/USA Carson (8506) 06/24/05 PV 5.76 (18-10½) Tim Lobinger/GER Leverkuesen (7346) 09/16/99 JT (old) 81.76 (268-3) Lennart Hedmark/Sweden Spala, Pol (EC) (7522) 06/25/78 (new) 79.80 (261-10) Peter Blank/GER Emmelhausen, GER(7425) 07/19/92 1500m 3:58.7 Robert Baker/USA Austin, Texas (7583) 04/03/80 1st day 4738 Dan O'Brien/USA Knoxville, TN (8707) 06/15/94 4747 nwi Dan O'Brien/USA New York (TAC) (8844) 06/12/91 2nd day 4455 Dave Johnson/USA New Orleans(OT) (8649) 06/27/92 Total 9026 Roman Sebrle/CZE Götzis, AUT 5/26-27/01 [10.64 0.0 811+1.9 1533 212 47.79 13.92-0.2 4792 480 7016 4:21.98] American Records (7000 point minimum) 100m 10.22 Chris Huffins/Mizuno (+0.9) Atlanta (OT/USA) (8546) 1996 LJ 8.08m (26-4 ¼) Dan O'Brien/Talence (+0.81) Talence, FRA (8891) 1992 SP 17.76(58-3 ¼) Russ Hodge/Foothill JC Hamburg, FRG 1966 HJ 2.21 (7-3) Tom Pappas/adidas Sydney, AUS (OG ) (8425) 2000 400m 45.68 Bill Toomey/SC Striders Mexico City (OG) (8193) 1968 110mH 13.52 (+1.6) Ashton Eaton/Oregon USATF 6/24/11 DT 55.87 (183-3) Bryan Clay/Nike Carson (8506) 2005 PV 5.70 (18-8 ¼) Tim Bright/Athletics West Seoul (OG) (8216) 1988 JT (old) 78.18 (256-6) Jim Connolly/UCLA Pullman (7756) 1984 (new) 74.58 (244-8) Dave Johnson/ReebokRT New Orleans (8649) 1992 1500m 3:58.7 Robert Baker/Hi Plains TC Austin (TexR) (7583) 1980 1st day 4738 Dan O'Brien/Footlocker AC Knoxville (8707) 1994 4747 nwi Dan O'Brien/Reebok RT New York(TAC) (8844) 1991 2nd day 4455 Dave Johnson/ReebokRT New Orleans (OT) (8649) 1992 Total 8891 Dan O'Brien/Reebok
