Our tournament for this month was held at MRSS, and we had Pitt's two senior teams play as alternates for one team as they competed against MRSS's one senior team for three games in total. The juniors had fun as well, with the MRSS's junior team and Hatzic's junior team. The seniors especially are getting excited for the Provincials, as they will be held at MRSS.
February 2001
We had a fun time at Pitt Meadows Secondary for the district meet on February 13th - Hatzic's junior team played the junior team from MRSS, and Ridge's senior team & Pitt's two senior teams played three games. Our last district tournament is next month, as we continue to prepare for the Provincials.
March 2001
The Senior Provincials are next month at MRSS! We're very excited! Our final district tournament was March 13th at Ridge, including the two home teams (junior and senior), Pitt Meadows' two senior teams, and the Hatzic team. It was a lot of fun! Congratulations to Ridge's junior team who went to the Junior Provincials and placed well, and good luck to Pitt and Ridge's senior teams at the Provincials the end of April!
April 2001
The Provincials were at Ridge on April 27th, and we were all extremely excited - we were within the top three teams going into the Provincials, so we definitely had a chance at gold. In the end, however, after playing probably the best games we had played ever as a team, we lost by the final question to St. George's, final score 380-370. It was a very intense game, played on the original set from the 1960s in our gymnasium. Congratulations to Pitt Meadows, who also participated in the Provincials, and Meadowridge, whose first tournament of the season was the Provincials.

Many Reach for the Top members are graduating this year, therefore leaving Reach for the Top behind, and perhaps joining college quiz bowl? :) Congrats to the grads and good luck to the teams for next year... and so I pass the job of webmaster to another Reach member for next year... so long, RFTT!

Thanks to Nicole for doing such a wonderful job on this site! The Maple Ridge Senior team is back this year with a whole new cast of characters. Member profiles are in progress and should be up on the site within the next few weeks. Meanwhile, no inter-district competitions have been arranged yet due to the teachers' job action. This is unfortunate, but hopefully our prospects will improve in the new year. If you are a student, teacher, or parent involved with Reach for the Top at a school in the Ridge-Meadows area and would like to see your team represented on this website, please contact Dee Morgan, the new webmaster.
