Our list of the Mountain West’s top football performers heads to Reno for the first time, where an offensive lineman with a reputation for dishing out punishment to would-be disruptors figures to be a key figure in the Nevada Wolf Pack’s new chapter.
Aaron Frost started his first two games for the Union as a freshman back in 2018, but it didn’t take much longer for him to cement himself for good in the starting lineup, playing 13 games at right guard the following year before sliding out to tackle in 2020. That move paid off with a spot on the all-conference second-team offense, and then he earned a second second-team nod in 2021 after allowing only one sack in the conference’s most pass-heavy attack.
It is worth noting, too, that according to Pro Football Focus, Frost also happened to be one of the best run-blocking tackles in the Mountain West last year: His 84.7 grade on that front was the third-best figure among all players at the position. Now the lone holdover from last year’s offensive line, Frost figures to set the standard for the new-look Union in 2022.
