Farmington closed out its winless Missota Conference season with a 7-0 loss to New Prague Thursday, Sept. 29, at the Boeckman Middle School courts. The Tigers finished 0-7 in league dual meet play.
The match was played in winds gusting up to 40 miles per hour that made the simplest shots a challenge.
"I thought we played well and we handled the wind much better (than New Prague)," coach Jack Olwell said.
That didn't translate to any points , however, as the Trojans dominated the scoreboard, especially in singles play.
The top Tiger performances came in doubles play with the No.1 tandem of Maggie Rudorfer and Meghan Lindstrom putting up the best fight in a 3-6, 6-7 (3) defeat.
"The difference was one break of a service," Olwell said. "Otherwise the match was a dead heat. Meghan played especially well from the baseline."
The second doubles team of Ally Midboe and Katie Burgess lost 3-6, 1-6 and the the No.3 duo of Jessica Autey and Rachel Molitor fell 2-6, 3-6.
The Tigers open Section 1AA team play next Tuesday against an opponent to be determined by seeding.
