The Broncos regained the lead later in the period when Clarke Caswell spun and fired a puck through the feet of an unsuspecting Ethan Eskit for his 20th goal of the season. The Broncos doubled the lead in the final second of the period when Burzynski snuck into the slot and one-timed home his second goal of the game.
Caleb Hadland cut into the lead for Brandon in the third period, but Carlin Dezainde scored into an empty net for the Broncos to hit the 30-goal plateau.
Rocha made 23 saves to improve to 11-5-0-1 for the Broncos. Eskit made 29 saves to fall to 11-4-1-3.
