Tyler Groat gave Topeka a 2-0 lead with a wrap-around goal with just 49sec left in the first period with an assist to Drew Kariofiles.
To start the second period, Corpus Christi had a power-play and converted. Mike Economos took a shot from the slot that went wide but deflected out to Emil Romig who put the IceRays on the board 47sec into the middle frame.
In the final period, Mike Gornall picked up the puck in the slot and beat Ben Myers as he was left all alone in front of the net at 9:26 of the third.
