Snider Secures Brahmas Post
A new Assistant General Manager is named in Fort Worth.

07.22.04 - Fort Worth, TX - Come late fall, there will be a new Assistant General Manager in the Fort Worth Brahmas front office.

Ryan Snider has been named to the position, assuming the duties for the upcoming 2004-05 season.

Snider shall relieve Dave McLain, who recently left the Brahmas, as the teams second in command.

Brahmas’ General Manager Mike Barack is enthusiastic to have Snider, who has already been working hard for a month, officially assume the role of Assistant GM.

“We are going to miss Dave, as he did an outstanding job for us, but we are definitely excited to have Ryan as a part of our organization,” Barack said.

Snider is a 30-year-old native of Star Lake, New York. He graduated with a Bachelors in Sports Management in 1996 from Ithaca College, and received his MBA earlier this year from Penn State.

Assistant GM is one of the toughest jobs at the arena, but Snider is prepared, with plenty of sports management experience. He has held executive positions at three East Coast NCAA Division I schools, including Cornell and basketball and hockey powerhouse Villanova University.

Ryan’s responsibilities with Fort Worth are numerous, including the oversight of all finances and relations with the facility, alongside having his foot in all other Brahma hockey operations.
