When David Irving, head coach of the Seadawgs moved to the Wilmington Hammerheads in 1999, Walker made the move as well. He was First Team All League that season. The Hammerheads sent Walker on loan to the Charleston Battery for the Battery's final regular season game. In 2000, Walker moved up to the Raleigh Capital Express of the USL A-League. Raleigh ceased operations at the end of the season and in February 2001, Walker moved to the Atlanta Silverbacks where he finished his career.
