The J. L. Wright Cup for the Best Upper School Cadet was first awarded in 1938 to T. C. Gordon who later served as a Captain in the 1st Canadian Parachute Battalion in the Second World War. In 1941, J. M. Lowndes received the award, and carried on to become the Honorary Colonel of the 48th Highlanders of Canada. In 1988, H. H. Hamilton began an annual donation of a gold St. Andrew's College ring to the winner.
