The Bobcats started with a bang, scoring the first nine points of the match. BU maintained their nine-point cushion to close out the first set.
 
The second set had an even flow until the Bobcats caught a big surge of momentum at 14-11. BU finished off the set with a dazzling 12-1 run over the Dinos.
 
A 6-1 surge of Brandon offence to begin the third would help set the stage for the sweep. The Bobcats' lead was trimmed to 10-9, before a 7-1 run gave them a comfortable cushion down the stretch. BU saved the best for last with their hitting efficiency at .435 in the third.
 
Tim Taylor was Calgary's top scorer with 11 kills as the Dinos fell to 2-4.
