The Farmington boys’ hockey team dropped a pair of Missota Conference games this week, falling to Chanhassen, 5-0, Tuesday and Red Wing, 3-1, Thursday.
“[The Storm] are the top of the heap in the Missota and it showed,” head coach Keith Revels said. “At times we matched them but overall they forced us into some mistakes and then capitalized on them rather quickly.”
Chanhassen scored two goals in both the first and second period en route to the shutout. It is the first time this season the Tigers have been shutout. Victor Simones made 32 stops for Farmington.
The offense continued to struggle Thursday night in Red Wing as the Tigers mustered just one goal. Farmington has scored one or less in four straight games. The teams took the game scoreless to the third period before Zach Colaw put the Tigers on top at 2:46. Andrew Peterson picked up the assist. The Wingers went on to score three unanswered goals, the last of which with one second remaining in the game.
Farmington outshot Red Wing 31-30 including 11-3 in the first period. Simones made 27 stops.
The Tigers return to action Tuesday in a non-conference contest at Bloomington Kennedy. Puck drops at 7:15 p.m.
