Fischer Adds To MVC Championship Haul With A 3,000m Title

CEDAR FALLS, Iowa – Drake University senior Reed Fischer (Minnetonka, Minn.) completed an outstanding weekend at the Missouri Valley Conference Indoor Track & Field Championship by winning the 3,000 meters Saturday afternoon. Fischer also won the 5,000 meters on Friday evening to become just the second Bulldog ever to complete the 3,000/5,000 meter sweep.

Fischer won the 3,000 meters in the final 80 meters as he kicked past Loyola's Alex Baker to win in 8:20.59.

"It was awesome, you can't ask for a better end to the weekend than that," Fischer said.
