Last Saturday was a memorable day in the history of the Fever franchise as the team won its first ever game in the IFL. The Fever defeated the visiting Fairbanks Grizzlies 44-39 to earn that illusive first victory. Montavis Pitts played a big part in the win as he was a ball hawk in the secondary of the Fever defense. Pitts turned in a outstanding performance, tallying 9.5 tackles and intercepting two passes, one of which he returned 47 yards for the go ahead TD late in the 3rd quarter. The Fever will look to make it back to back wins against Pacific North opponents when they travel to play the Kent Predators in Week Eight.
