Seven added to PSU Athletics Hall of Fame

He served in the Army from 1956 until he retired at the rank of Colonel in 1981. He served two tours of Vietnam and two additional assignments in Germany. After his Army career, he served on the PSU faculty for 21 years, assuming the chair of the military science department in 1976. He was named assistant to the President in 1991, and 15 years later he was named director of the PSU Business and Technology Institute.

Miller played a big part as the Gorillas restarted their baseball program in the early 1990s. A three-time all-MIAA first baseman, he still holds the school record for hits (202) and he’s second in doubles (39), runs batted in (130), walks (85) and games played (173).

Snodgrass won four straight 880-yard conference titles from 1923-26 and ran on the mile relay team that won league titles in 1924-25. After college, he coached all sports at Pittsburg High School from 1931-43 before becoming head track coach at Wichita East from 1943-56, leading East to nine state track titles and four second places in those 13 years.

Snodgrass will be inducted into the hall of fame’s Legacy category, which was created in 2005 and focuses on athletes from the school’s first 50 years (1903-53).
