An attackman, Snape was a three-time USILA All-American. The first player to score 10 goals in one game, he earned honorable mention All-America status as a sophomore and third-team accolades a year later. With 103 goals in his first three seasons, Snape became the first Statesman to reach the century mark. He saved his best campaign for last, garnering second-team All-American recognition his senior season. A team captain in 1954, Snape’s 43 goals were nearly half of the team’s total that season, while his 146 career scores was the highest by a Statesman at the time. His ability to find the net earned him a spot in the 1954 North-South All-Star game in which he scored two goals in a 13-11 North victory.
