Hocker stayed poised and relaxed behind Fisher, and made a move ahead of Fisher with three laps to go. He was unable to shake Fisher who stayed right behind him.
"He went by me, and I was thankful to have someone to chase," Fisher told NBC's Lewis Johnson after the race.
On the final lap, Fisher went outside on the backstretch but couldn't get around Hocker. Coming around the final turn, he went wide again and passed Hocker and beat him to the line.
Fisher now holds the Indoor American Records over 3,000m and 2 Miles. He is set to target the 5,000m American Record at the BU David Hemery Valentine Invite next Friday, February 14. He'll need to best the 12:51.61 run by his teammate, Woody Kincaid, in 2023. That race will be streamed LIVE on FloTrack.
