What Pentathlon events does your state have the boys do?
NFHS "suggests" Long Jump
High Jump
200m dash
Discus
and 1600m run
This suggestion is rule 8 and of course has the catch all of "unless state association rules apply" is there.

New York follows this order for the boys:
110m Hurdles
High Jump
Shot Put
Long Jump
1500m run.

I'm curious what other events and order of events are used in other states and for that matter, what rule guidelines are used. Guidelines are things like the false start modifications, hurdle lane assignments, vertical jump increments.
One thing for sure, there are no scoring tables for a 1600m event, so why in the world NFHS suggests this event is a mystery.
