With offensive stalwarts Quinn Malcolm, Jake Bauman and Alex Rojesky and defensive captain Tyler Tutewohl-Klotz all out with injuries, it was a long night for the Tigers in a 17-1 road loss Thursday night, Apr. 21, to Chaska/Chanhassen.
"Being so thin made it difficult to stay with a more seasoned team that combined two schools that are both the size of ours," Tiger coach Paul Sorenson said. "We held together as a team even though we were outmatched. We'll take that away as a positive."
Chaska/Chanhassen led 12-1 at halftime with Luke Brevick scoring the Farmington goal, his first of the season.
Sorenson said his team played much better in the second half and was especially pleased with the play of Kevin Clifton and Carter Daigle, each playing his first varsity game.
Veteran Mitch Collier also gave the team a boost with a switch to the midfielder position, providing some much needed experience to that line.
Goalkeeper Charlie Weierke faced 38 shots in a busy night in the nets.
