-Eldon achieved a small amount of notoriety between 2010 and 2014, when the team began placing first and second in their district and conference tournaments. While there are no published individual stats from the time, All-District results and accounts from the time imply that most of the scoring was done by a player named Mikayla Petchell.

-The team attended few events until the 2016-17 season, when coach Suzanne Henley retired and Sally Garbi decided to take the position. The team began attending their first regular tournaments during this time, primarily novice tournaments from around central Missouri. Their first major success, however, was at the 2018 [[Sparta]] Fall Tournament, placing third and gaining the school's first ever bid to [[PACE NSC]]. Their success was further elevated when [[Tuscumbia]] player Caleb Martonfi moved to the school, helping lead the team to a 4th-place state finish in [[2019 MSHSAA State Championship|2019]]. Their first nationals was not as successful, going 3-12 and placing 93rd out of 96 teams.

-After a brief yet equally-competitive 2019-20 season, Sally Garbi retired, leaving her spot to coaches Emily Waller and Nick Dissen. The team went into 2020-21 primarily led by Jacob Groves and [[user:Connor Lee|Connor Lee]], who nearly broke the [[Hoppes-Mikanowski limit]] at the [[Outstate Missouri Academic Rendezvous]], yet the team was once again unable to break out of the bottom bracket at the [[2021 NSC]].
