When he was in high school, Arizona State Sun Devils senior long snapper Mitchell Fraboni didn’t much consider a future at the position.
In fact, in addition to long snapping, Fraboni played defensive end, recording 10 sacks and intercepting two passes during his senior season at Mountain Pointe High School in Ahwatukee, Arizona en route to a state championship.
That’s when then-ASU graduate assistant and current NAU wide receivers coach Aaron Pflugrad came calling. Offering Fraboni a preferred walk-on spot, Pflugrad invited him to watch the team in the hope of bringing him on.
