Boys Redwood Empire All-Around

The points scored within ( ) are from the scoring tables for the Decathalon for the 10 events from that event. The other point totals are from another scoring table. These lists are for comparing athletes simply by best ever marks and is in no way a rating on who I think would win in any type of head to head competition in these events. Because the point totals for individual events are not all from the same scoring tables no comparisons between events should be made. Example DeDora’s 47.27 score being scored higher than his 21.72.
