Bio

Eric Snyder, a head coach at a pair of NCAA Division II institutions the last three years, is in his first year as an assistant women’s volleyball coach at Bentley University.

Snyder, a past recipient of the American Volleyball Coaches Association Thirty Under 30 Award, was the head coach at the University of Mary (N.D.) last fall and at Northeast-10 Conference member Stonehill College in both 2007 and 2008. U-Mary, which competes in one of Division II’s premier volleyball conferences, finished at 7-24 last year, and Stonehill was 31-31 during Snyder’s two seasons, including 21-11 in his final season. Both of his Skyhawk teams at least doubled the previous season’s win total.

Snyder was an assistant coach at Division I South Alabama during the 2006 season, spent two years as a graduate assistant at Tiffin University (2004-06) and as an undergraduate, was an assistant coach at Southern New Hampshire.

Snyder received his Bachelor of Science degree in Sports Management/Business Administration from SNHU in 2004 and his MBA from Tiffin two years later.
