Snyder named Muscatine basketball coach in Muscatine
Snyder, in his second year in New Hampton, built a winning program with two straight seasons. He recalls former players who lost interest in basketball after seasons and vows a disciplined, defense oriented system at Muscatine. He aims for an in depth program, equal opportunity for all players, and early evaluation of prospects before summer. He will coach in Mississippi Valley or Des Moines Metro, views Valley as tougher, and plans to view last year’s players on film and in person.
