This time time there was no drama, no last second goal and no heart-breaking loss. The Tigers dominated Rochester Century throughout on the way to a 16-8 victory Tuesday night in Rochester to improve their season record to 2-3.

"This was a great rebound game after what happened to us last Friday (one-goal loss to Rosemount)," coach Dan Pickens said. "The girls got the lead, then rather than being comfortable, built on it.

"We made some adjustments throughout the game and the team did a great job of working hard the entire game."

Farmington built an 8-4 lead by the halftime break and doubled that score in the second half.

Haley Bradshaw scored six goals and assisted on a seventh to spearhead the Tiger offensive attack. She got plenty of help from Jess Erchul who registered her second hat trick in as many games.

Michaela Tonsager scored twice  and Adrienne Jolicoeur, Ally Midboe, Betsy Anderson, Shelby Klotz and Rachel Welzin each added a goal. Tia Jacoby had two assists and Haley Doll, Midboe each handed out one.

Goalie Maddie Kohlbeck had another strong outing, finishing with eight saves.

"The biggest difference between this game and the last couple was we kept up our intensity on the big plays like draws and ground balls," Pickens said. "We need to continue to do that."

Thursday the Tigers entertain Chaska/Chanhassen. Game time is 6:30 at Tiger Stadium.
