“Caroline Fischer is one of the finest distance runners in New Hampshire, New England and the nation. She battled Lyme disease during her last three years of high school, but she still managed to perform at a high level. She may very well be the most courageous and toughest kid that I have ever seen at the high school level.”

Head Coach Coach at Exeter High

Athletic Excellence

The 5-foot-8 senior broke the tape in the two-mile run at the Ocean Breeze Miles Mania meet in March, clocking a time of 10:51.6, which ranked as the nation’s No. 25 prep performance indoors in 2020. The state’s Gatorade Girls Cross Country Runner of the Year last fall, Fischer swept the 800, 1600 and 3200 at the Division I state meet in the spring of 2019. A 16-time All-State honoree between track and cross country and a four-time All-New England selection, she also took 15th in the mile at the New Balance Nationals Outdoor.

Academic Achievement

Fischer has maintained a 3.82 GPA in the classroom. She has signed a National Letter of Intent to run on scholarship at Providence College this fall.

Exemplary Character

Fischer serves on the leadership team of Bishop Guertin’s Campus Ministry, helping to organize high school masses and performing community outreach. Also a eucharistic minister at the high school and at St. Marie’s Catholic church, she has donated her time as a preschool religious education volunteer in the Seeds/Promises program in addition to volunteering on behalf of local road races.
