DES MOINES, Iowa – Drake senior Emilie Meyer earned her second MVC Track Athlete of the Week award this season after winning the University/College women's 800 at the 2025 Drake Relays.

On her home track, Meyer also earned a top 10 finish in the women's 1500 with a time of 4:26.58 for the Bulldogs.
