Neshoba Central (Philadelphia, Miss.) has the longest active softball win streak in the nation, but their 53-game streak isn't even the longest in the program's history.
Since finishing the 2019 season with six straight wins and a state championship, the Rockets went 11-0 in the COVID-shortened 2020 season and then went 32-0 in winning another state title in 2021. The Rockets are off to a 4-0 start to the 2022 season for 53 straight wins.
But the school record is 64 in a row, won between the 2017 and 2019 seasons. Neshoba Central went 34-0 in 2018 and won the first 24 games of the 2019 season before losing to Philadelphia. After two more wins and another loss, the Rockets finished the year with the first six wins of the 53-game streak. That gives Neshoba Central a 117-2 record since 2017. Since 2014, the Rockets are 234-9 with seven state championships.
Neshoba Central heads the list of schools with the longest active win streaks in the nation as of March 7. The longest all-time softball win streak is 112 games by Vandebilt Catholic (Houma, La.) from 1980 to 1983.
Topeka is among the active win streak leaders with a run of 25 entering the 2022 season.
