Meet Athlete Management Graduate Joe Aloisi:

At this time last year, Joe Aloisi was not working in sports. Today, Joe is beaming after watching his first NFL client, QB Matt Moore, take the field as the starting QB for the Carolina Panthers and get his first NFL win.

SMWW Agent Advisor Joe Aloisi says "I can't explain how much fun I'm having," said Aloisi. "I have learned so much since completing the course just a year ago. From being with Matt during the draft, to negotiating a contract with Nike to being there as Matt changed teams to his first NFL start and victory, its been a fun ride. "

"And I'm not stopping there! Dr. Lashbrook and I are active in recruiting more players this year. Matt is my first NFL client, not my last."

Meet Athlete Management Graduate Steve Banks:

Former SMWW Agent Advisor Steve Banks hit the big time. After working with SMWW as an agent advisor for a couple years, Banks joined Goodwin Sports Management in Seattle Washington. After recruiting some top talent, Banks landed Rodney Stuckey from Eastern Washington who was selected 15th overall by the Detriot Pistons in the 2007 NBA Draft. "I have been very fortunate" said Banks. "I got my start with SMWW and worked closely with Dr. Lashbrook for a couple years. I just stuck with it and believed that I could make it as an agent. It always takes a bit longer than you want it to but as long as you try to do things the right way and continue to meet people and learn the business, it can really happen."
