After getting punched in the mouth (figuratively, not literally) to start the game, Pickerington Central responded with a great second half effort to almost pull off a miracle comeback. Snyder hit multiple time and space 3-pointers and defensively he blocked a shot and hustled for a steal. Nice effort by a senior who has played in a ton of big games throughout his career.

Pickerington Central was without a couple of their taller players so the Tigers needed some other guys to step up and rebound and bring toughness to the court. That’s where Snyder shined as he got a couple 50/50 balls and provided good energy on both ends of the court. A lead guard who has consistently knocked down shots on the perimeter, Snyder has had a nice summer for the Tigers after getting valuable varsity experience the past two years.

I decided to pair the twins together for this breakdown, the duo started together for Pickerington Central during June and impressed me enough to both get added to our rankings, after they initially got on our radar at the Prep Hoops Expo last Fall. Aaven runs more on the ball for Pickerington Central while Ayden looks to score off spot-ups and set plays. While Aaven is more of a natural point guard, both twins don’t let the ball stick to their hands and move it within the offense. What I like about both twins is that they are fearless, I noticed in the game Vs Richmond Heights last year that they didn’t back down after a slow start and found ways to contribute and keep fighting. Both similar level prospects right now, I would imagine they could potentially be a package combo at the small college level down the road.
