The one-goal effort was the latest in a long string of low-scoring effort for Farmington (1-10-1) who have netted just two scores in their last two outings.
"We had chance after chance, and the shots we had were high quality," Tiger coach Jon Holmes said.
"The difference in many of our recent games is the physical side of shooting. We have been getting into the right positions and even getting the puck to the net, but the shots are often not the hard, fast, shots to corners that we need to find the twine."
Mound led 1-0 on a power play goal after the opening period and then rattled off four straight in the seoncd stanza to put the game away.
Grace Gavin notched the Farmington score late in the second period.
The most frustrating stat of the night came in the shots on goal depeartment where the Tigers held a 49-25 advantage.
Sophomore Madison Bowe went the distance in goal for the Tigers and finished with 20 saves.
The Tigers don't have much time to think about the loss as they hit the ice this afternoon (Friday) at 3:00 to take on Apple Valley in consolation play. The Eagles lost to 5-3 to Park of Cottage Grove in yesterday's opening round.
