The shutout was the second in three contests for the Tigers who have managed just one goal during the stretch.
The loss dropped the Tigers' season record to 1-9-1 and 0-4 in the Missota Conference.
Thursday's contest was decided in the opening period when the Tigers spent six minutes in the penalty box that resulted in a pair of power play goals for the Trojans. A third score late in the period put the visitors in a three-goal hole heading to the first break.
Brittany Sticha made it 4-0 for the Trojans just eight seconds into the second period and although the Tigers played New Prague evenly the rest of the period, they could not dent the scoreboard.
New Prague added a goal late in the final period to add a cherry to the top of the victory cake and stretch the Tiger's winless streak to nine games.
New Prague outshot its guests by a final 34-19 count with Trojan goalie Sophie Puente regisetring the shutout.
Maddie Bowe worked the Farmington nets and recorded 29 saves.
The Tigers will try to break their scoring drought at their annual Louie Schmitz Holiday Classic scheduled for Dec. 27-29 at Schmitz Maki Arena. Other teams in the eight-team tourney include Eastview, Hastings, Mound. Rosemount, Apple Valley, Shakopee and Park of Cottage Grove.
