Advice for Undergrad with 3/yrs of Trading Exp. With Job Search

Hi all I am new to the site but was wondering if anybody could provide me with some insight/advice for my situation. I have interned as a trader assistant on the floor of the NYMEX for three summers as well as one operations stint at SIG. I am a Div.1 college basketball player but attend a non target-schoolfor BB. I feel my experience is great but being that my GPA is low due to my time committment to bball for 4 years (3.32 major 3.02 overall GPA) I feel I am being overlooked for opportunities. My questions----> Do I have shot with a BB or HF etc. with such a low GPA, if so any suggestions for getting my foot in the door would be great? Thanks.
