Rochester Century dominated play, scoring seven goals in each half, on the way to a 14-5 win over Farmington Tuesday night, Apr. 26, in Rochester.
"We played a very sloppy game in both ends," Tiger coach Paul Sorenson said. "Our attack had five or six point-blank opportunities from three yards and in and did not capitalize. We also lost in every hustle stat, including ground balls by a 3-1 margin."
The Panthers jumped to a 4-0 lead after the first period and led 7-2 at the halftime break.
Jake Bauman had a big game for the Tigers, scoring three goals. Trevor Howard and Marquis Words netted the other Farmington goals.
"Jake had a great game, both in scoring and in the hustle department," Sorenson said. "Marques was all over trying to create plays and we got some consistent play from freshmen Kevin Clifton, Mike Thompson and Corey Rudrud."
The Tigers continued to play shorthanded but Sorenson said he hopes to have most of the walking wounded back in action for Friday night's game in Owatonna.
"The team is very much looking forward to the rematch with Owatonna," Sorenson said.
The Huskies defeated the Tigers 13-6 in the third game of the 2010 season.
