New York Riveters Win First Game 3-2, Fujimoto Brilliant

When the clock on the main scoreboard above Nana Fujimoto's net read 0:00 the Riveters had registered 34 shots and 3 goals and the Boston Pride had registered 44 shots and 2 goals. The New York Riveters, after losing 7-1 to the Pride on October 18th at Aviator Sports and Events Center, answered back with an amazing victory on Military Appreciation Night in front of their fans for the franchise's first win.

Both teams were without key players in last night's game. The Riveters were without Lyudmila Belyakova who was injured in the Four Nations' Tournament and the Boston Pride were without top scoring forward Brianna Decker.
