The 1972-73 Lorne Jenkins High School team from Barrhead, Alberta won the Reach for the Top national championship. [1] They were coached by Ken Kowalski, currently the Speaker of the Alberta legislature.
While at the national championships in Ottawa, the team defeated teams from Nova Scotia, Ontario, Manitoba, and Quebec.
The school would make it to nationals the following six years as well, which led to the 1985 edition of the Canadian Encyclopedia calling them "the series' most successful competitors". It is unknown how Lorne Jenkins would stack against teams from after the CBC era.
Members: Shirley Beyers, David Hamilton, Brenda Marshall, Les Wallace.
