A 2004 graduate of Southern New Hampshire University, Snyder served as an assistant volleyball coach during his undergraduate tenure, helping lead the Penmen to its highest win total in 17 years (16 victories) and a berth in the Northeast-10 Conference championships during his senior season in 2003.
Snyder, who has been a camp counselor and clinician throughout the country, has also been involved in club volleyball organizations in both Ohio and New Hampshire.
He earned a Bachelor of Science in Sport Management &
Business Administration from Southern New Hampshire in 2004 and a
Masters of Business Administration from Tiffin in 2006.
