How to spin a position

Hi all,
So I recently accepted a position with a top middle market bank this summer in their IBD division. However, this is not your traditional SA position- I will be coming in under the junior bankers in a support role (I am a sophomore). More specifically, I will be assisting in the maintenance and manipulation of their Salesforce CRM software. This will involve everything from helping junior bankers extract and present data for pitchbooks to creating deal summaries to traditional data entry and upkeep. My question is: how best do I spin this for junior year SA recruiting? will this experience play come next fall? I am a bit concerned that I won't have true deal-based experience.

Thanks!
