The Tigers won the first six events and seven of the first nine before swimming the final three in exhibition status.
"Our top girls swam less events in an effort to get their teammates more swims," Farmington coach Jen Marshall said. "Red Wing has a six-lane pool so there's less entries...We're swimming well right now but still need to fine tune little things."
Senior Kaitlyn O'Reilly, who turned in a trio first place efforts (200 individual medley, 200 medley relay and 100 butterfly), set a pool record in the 200 medley with a clocking of 2:01.9.
