Tune-in to KDKA-TV at 11 a.m. on Saturday, June 13, 2026, and again at 11:30 a.m. on Saturday, June 20, to watch Quaker Valley High School students compete in a playoff episode of KDKA's KDQuiz, an academic challenge hosted by KDKA chief meteorologist Ray Petelin.
The Quaker Valley “on-screen” team is comprised of seniors Finnegan Musial, Charlotte Liao, and Katherine Linge. Seniors River Capek and Samy Ketata serve as team alternates. The team is coached by high school math teacher Matt Welch and will compete on KD Quiz against teams from Mount Lebanon and Uniontown High Schools. This is the 21st consecutive year Quaker Valley High School has taken part in KDKA's signature game show. Quaker Valley has qualified for the playoffs of the show in 8 of the last 10 years.
The half-hour show pits three high school teams, which are comprised of three students each, against one another. Students must answer questions from a variety of general high school curriculum subject areas. 81 schools from across the Pittsburgh region compete on the show every year. The top nine schools in the competition are awarded educational grants provided by GBU Life.
