PBR: Are you looking for anything in particular in a school? (Example: high academics, certain academic program, local, etc.)
Snedeker: I am a good student who values academics so, of course, I am looking for a school that provides an education and degree that will help me succeed after my baseball days are over. I am interested in majoring in Engineering. I also want a school that has a good baseball program where I can compete at the collegiate level.
PBR: How did you do your junior year? What were your high school statistics? And how did your team do?
Snedeker: Overall, I feel like I had a successful season but I am always working to improve and develop into a consistent player who can impact games. I think I hit around .367 with a couple of HR’s while hitting in the middle of our order. We advanced to the State semifinal game where we lost to eventual State Champion, Edmond Memorial.
PBR: What are you goals for your senior season?
Snedeker: I want to help my team reach our goal of a state championship. We came real close last year and I would love to take the next step in winning it all. Individually, I want to be the best player I can be to help our team win. I should be behind the plate this year and I want to lead us as a catcher and a senior. I have some statistical goals I will strive to achieve but I will keep those to myself. For me it is all about the team. My coach, Danny Morgan has an acronym we all live by…F.A.M.i.L.Y. Forget About Me I Love You. I think this keeps us playing for one another instead of ourselves.
PBR: What travel team do you play for? Are you playing fall ball with a team?
Snedeker: I play for the BBA Titans out of Tulsa both during the summer and fall. I have played with them since entering high school. The director is Wes Davis who is also the Director of Baseball Operations at ORU baseball.
PBR: Do you play any other sports?
Snedeker: I played all the sports growing up but decided to pursue only baseball in high school.
PBR: What are your ACT and GPA?
Snedeker: 28 ACT and 3.92
