UNI Athletic Communications Intern
CEDAR FALLS, Iowa – Thanks to an NCAA sports forum, UNI football player Brandon Smith has seen how he can put his passion to work.
Smith, a Lee's Summit, Mo., native was chosen to attend the Career in Sports Forum in Indianapolis from June 1-4.
"When attending this forum, I was a human sponge. I wanted to soak up as much information I could," Smith said.
School administrators were asked to nominate campus leaders interested in pursuing careers in athletics. An NCAA committee chose nearly 225 student-athletes from NCAA Division I, II and III schools to participate in the forum.
