Seen sharing a laugh with teammates in Greeley prior to CHSAA Class 3A State Tournament action against Eaton, Montezuma-Cortez’s Miles Frost was plenty happy about the Panthers’ performance (M-CHS finished 22-6 overall) in 2023.

Even more recently, however, the now-senior was elated to learn he’d been selected to take part in the 2nd Annual Native American All-Star Baseball Showcase, June 23-25, in Atlanta, Ga. Frost, of Southern Ute and Diné (Navajo) heritage, and 49 other players will go through an intensive skills-oriented workout session overseen by multiple former Major League Baseball veterans, and also compete in a head-to-head game (25 players per team) inside the Atlanta Braves’ Truist Park with college and professional scouts in attendance.

“When I first got told, I was pretty excited,” Frost said via phone Monday morning, June 12. “It’s just a big accomplishment and I’m glad I get to represent my culture and my town, you know? But second, it’ll be good to get instruction and work out stuff with MLB players, people that know about ... that level. It’s just really exciting and I’m glad I get to go ... on this trip.”
