Kameron Eleby’s senior season at Pattonville High School was nothing short of spectacular. A
dual-threat quarterback with a knack for making plays both through the air and on the
ground, Eleby capped off his high school career by proving he is one of the best athletes in
Missouri. With a season filled with highlight-worthy performances, the 6’1″ 195-pound quarterback has cemented his
place in the state’s football scene, all while following in the footsteps of his older brother, Kaleb
Eleby, a Pattonville football legend.
A Senior Season to Remember
Kameron Eleby made his mark in a big way this year, finishing the season with 32 total
touchdowns—17 passing and 15 rushing. He threw for 1,724 yards and added another 1,016 yards
on the ground, showcasing his ability to dominate in multiple aspects of the game. His
playmaking ability made him a nightmare for opposing defenses, as he used his speed, vision,
and arm strength to consistently deliver for Pattonville.
Whether it was threading a precise pass to his receiver or taking off on a long touchdown run,
Eleby’s versatility as a dual-threat quarterback allowed him to control the pace of the
game. His ability to read defenses and make split-second decisions was a hallmark of his play,
earning him a spot on the Missouri 5A Second-Team All-Conference list as an Athlete (ATH), a
well-deserved recognition for his incredible skill set.
Living Up to the Family Legacy
Kameron’s rise on the football field has been closely tied to the name Eleby. His older brother,
Kaleb Eleby, left a massive imprint on Pattonville football. As the team’s former star
quarterback, Kaleb passed for 9,735 yards and 95 touchdowns during his career and went on to
commit to Western Michigan University, where he furthered his football journey at the
collegiate level. Kaleb’s success at both the high school and college levels has put a spotlight on
the Eleby family, and Kameron’s performance this season shows he’s more than capable of
carrying that legacy forward.
While Kameron has often been compared to his older brother, he has proven that he is ready to
carve out his own path. His play has earned him recognition across the state, and he’s shown
that while Kaleb’s achievements will always be a part of the family’s history, Kameron has the
potential to reach new heights of his own.
College Recruitment: A Promising Future Ahead
Despite his standout performance, Eleby’s recruitment process has been a bit surprising to
some. Currently holding offers from NAIA programs like Graceland University and MidAmerica
Nazarene University (MNU), many believe Kameron’s talent and potential should have him on
the radar of more programs. His dual-threat ability and impressive statistics from the season
suggest that with the right coaching and development, he has the skills to excel at the
collegiate level and beyond.

determination will likely lead to further opportunities down the line. His senior season has
shown that he’s ready for the next step, and with his relentless drive and raw talent, the best is
yet to come.
The Road Ahead
As Kameron Eleby leaves behind his high school career at Pattonville, his future is full of
possibilities. Whether he stays with one of his current offers or garners attention from more
schools, it’s clear that Eleby is just getting started. The name Eleby will forever be linked
with Pattonville football, but Kameron’s impact on the game has ensured that he is creating his
own legacy, one touchdown at a time.
Kameron Eleby may have followed in his brother’s footsteps, but he’s proving that he has the
talent, heart, and determination to forge a path all his own and build his own career. As he embarks on the next chapter
of his football journey, one thing is certain: the best is yet to come.
