Fletcher holds the all-time single season record in punting average with a 43.2 mark set in 1979, which also led the nation in Division II. Fletcher had a career long 75 yard punt against Lincoln University, he is still tied for the Bulldog career mark in longest field goal with a 52-yard boot against Northwest Missouri State in 1979. He was a member of the 1979 Academic All-America second-team for the college division and a unanimous all-MIAA (then Missouri Intercollegiate Athletics Association) selection at punter. Fletcher lettered two years for the Bulldogs under head coaches Ron Taylor (‘78) and Bruce Craddock (‘79). In 1980, Fletcher signed a three-year contract with the Saskatchewan Roughriders after he was the second selection in the Canadian Football League draft. Fletcher came to Truman from Burnaby, British Columbia.
