  • The 8K Chronicles
    The 8K Chronicles Ah, the mystique of scoring 8000 points. When Jake Arnold put up a terrific 8215 points to win the 2007 NCAA meet in Sacramento it made the Arizona senior the 59th American decathlete to score 8K on the current (1985 IAAF) scoring tables. The score also made Arnold #29 on the all-time US list. From 1961, when Phil Mulkey’s 8709 on the ’52 tables (which converted to Jim Thorpe Jake Arnold Dave Johnson Kip Janvrin -the First 8000 scorer- - -the latest 8000 scorer-- --most consecutive 8Ks-- --most 8000 performances-- 8049 on current tables), to Arnold’s win at Hornet Stadium, the feat has been accomplished 331 times by Americans as of June 12, 2007. But, given that American decathletes have been around for almost a century, there have been numerous 8000+ performances. Another 47 8K performances have been accomplished on earlier IAAF scoring tables, starting with Jim Thorpe’s 8412+ Olympic win in 1912 on the original tables: 378 reported scores over 8000 since 1912. Kip Janvrin holds the American record for the most 8000 scores, 26; his first in 1990, and his last in 2001. Among active US decathletes, Tom Pappas owns 16 and Bryan Clay 11. Not counting dnfs, Dave Johnson scored 13 consecutive 8000s from 1988 thru 1994.
