Patrick Liao is a prominent Lisgar player.

High School

Patrick began playing Reach for the Top at Lisgar in grade 9, where he went to Reach for the Top Nationals as a spare on a powerful team that defeated UTS to be national champion. The following year saw him be on the team as a regular, as Lisgar tied for first at regionals and came in the top 10 at provincials. In Patrick's grade 11 year, he captained a Lisgar team consisting of three other grade 11s and a grade 10 to first in Ottawa regionals but failed to finish in the top 10 at the provincal tournament.

In the quizbowl circuit, Patrick played on the Lisgar team that made HSNCT in 2009, 2010, 2011. Patrick captained a team that won the 2010 Ontario Provincial NAQT championships.

Patrick is infamous for answering "Daniel Carter" for "Jimmy Carter" at a tournament. Daniel was the captain of Lisgar's rivals, Centennial Collegiate Vocational Institute.
