Hy-Tek has a multi event scoring capability that include events other than the standard dec/hept/pent etc. For example you can chose to assign a point score to the triple jump. A mark of 11.33 returns a score of 384 points using what Hy-Tek refers to as the IAAF tables. I have never seen a hard copy of such tables. The triple jump is not found in the IAAF Combined events scoring tables and the 2001 IAAF Scoring Tables of Athletics give that mark a point total of 550 ( the 1992 edition scores it at 566). Can someone explain to me where Hy-Tek comes up with their points for the triple jump? It doesn't seem to be generated from anything I can find from the IAAF.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Tom -- Tom Murrell Cross Country & Track Coach Tennessee HS 1112 Edgemont Ave. Bristol TN, 37620 TSSAA Dec/Pent State Meet scorer Director Bristol Cross September 28, 2002 State of Tenn. HS CC & Track page http://www.btcs.org/ths/track
