The victory followed Tuesday's triumph at the Missota Conference Relays and served as a tune-up for next week's True Team section meet in Rochester.
Farmington coach Brian Helmstetter was very pleased with Thursday's results but cautioned that some of the opposing teams were not at full strength.
"When you look at the team scores, you have to keep in mind that three other teams kept some of the big dogs at home," he said. "A win is win, but..."
Farmington won the meet with 184 points. Chanhassen was a distant runner-up with 76.5, followed by Shakopee 54.16, Chaska 47.33 and Northfield 10.

"I think we will surprise a few people, but we won't have any of the top athletes at the meet," Helmstetter said, "so it will be tough to crack the top three.....this year, anyway."
