Friday night the Gophers were back in play this week facing the Fighting Hawks at the Ralph Engelstad Arena. Of course Sidney Peters was in net for Minnesota, while North Dakota put in Lexie Shaw. Two minutes in the Gophers put the first official shot on goal. At 5:14 Megan Wolfe went to the box for checking Annelise Rice. On the resulting power play Amy Menke put a shot on goal, which Peters deflected, but Gracen Hirschy caught the rebound and put it in the backdoor at 6:30. Ryleigh Houston had the second assist.
Not long after their first goal the North Dakota scored again.
