No, the distance from the pitching mound to home plate in high school Baseball has not always been 60 feet 6 inches. The distance was standardized to this measurement in 1970 by the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS). Prior to this, various distances were used, often shorter, depending on local rules and practices. The change aimed to align high school play more closely with collegiate and professional standards.
