Brent Seidel

Ken Halpin
Athletic Director | Alumnus"My degree has absolutely helped me. First and foremost, it opened necessary doors to get me that very first job in athletics. If I didn't get that first one, none of these others would have happened. I've received several promotions since getting the degree. Master's degrees in sport are becoming more and more popular. Gonzaga's program has the benefit of having entered the industry early and placing many successful graduates into the industry."
