Nashville's athletic program is one of the most successful in Arkansas, having won 42 state championships. The Nashville Scrappers football team is one of the top 30 winningest high school football programs in the country (3rd winningest in Arkansas), winning over 800 games since the program's creation in 1910. The Scrappers have won five state championships as recognized by the Arkansas Activities Association (1996, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2015), and claim four others as distinguished by statewide newspaper rankings in the pre-playoff era (1941, 1942, 1955, 1967). The Scrappers won three consecutive state championships (2005, 2006, 2007) and carried a 33-game winning streak from 2005-07. The record-setting 1996 championship football squad went 15-0, scored 97 touchdowns, 77 extra points, and gained 7,052 in total yards that season; receiver Greg Washington amassed a state-record 27 touchdowns and 2,321 yards. In 2015, first-year head coach Mike Volarvich led the Scrappers to another state title, equaling the 1996 team by amassing a perfect 15-0 record, and breaking numerous school records.
