Richland is the dominant small school in Missouri quizbowl, having won the Class 2 title 15 of the 19 times the MSHSAA state competition has been held. Richland is the only school in any class that has advanced to the MSHSAA state tournament every year since its inception in 1996, and has only missed the championship game in 2002 and 2010. They also won the small-school title at the first two iterations of the NAQT Missouri Qualifier, but did not attend that tournament again until 2014, when they placed 2nd overall behind Hallsville, a small school in MSHSAA Class 3.

At the 2009 MSHSAA State Championship, Richland defeated St. Paul Lutheran 280-275 to win its thirteenth Class 2 title.

At the 2010 MSHSAA State Championship, Richland went 1-2 in the preliminary rounds and placed fifth, making this only the second time they have not won the Class 2 championship.

Richland won its fourteenth state title in 2011 and placed second in 2012 and 2013.

In 2014, Richland lost a preliminary game against defending champion Saxony Lutheran 390-350, but won the rematch in the championship game 480-290 to earn its fifteenth state title.
