  • History of the U
    HISTORY OF THE DECATHLON at U.S. OLYMPIC TRIALS, By: Frank Zarnowski 58 Second Ave Emmitsburg, MD 28727 Copyrighted, © 1992, 2004, 2008, 2012, 2016 INTRODUCTION: The decathlon (and pentathlon) was added to the Olympic program in 1911 and first contested in Stockholm, 1912. In 1912 nations were allowed as many as twelve decathlon entries. In the U.S. Trials were held in 3 parts of the country but were not binding. In these days, it seems fair to say, US track and field was dominated by the New York faction of the AAU, and at times, Olympic selections appeared arbitrary. From 1920 to 1928 each nation was allowed 4 entrants in the Olympic decathlon. In 1932 the number was paired to 3. After 1924 the Olympic pentathlon was dropped. World Wars canceled the Olympic Games and Trials in 1916, 1940 and 1944. World records have been set at the U.S. Olympic decathlon Trials on five occasions: 1912 J. Austin Menual/U.
