SASKATOON - Keaton Hartigan made 42 saves as the No. 6 Waterloo Warriors shocked the top-ranked Alberta Golden Bears 2-1 on Thursday in the opening game of the Canadian Interuniversity Sport men's hockey championship.

Justin Larson and Blake Chartier scored power-play goals for the Warriors, who were outshot 43-13 by Alberta. Colin Behenna assisted on both goals.

Torrie Dyck scored a power-play goal for Alberta with 3:30 left in the third period, but the Golden Bears were unable to put an equalizer past Hartigan.

Hartigan was particularly impressive in the second when he turned aside 22 shots.

Kurtis Mucha made 11 saves for Alberta.

The Golden Bears, celebrating their 100th year on the ice, play No. 4 Saint Mary's on Friday afternoon. They will need to win by at least two goals and hope Saint Mary's beats Waterloo in order to advance to the gold medal game.
