Berk, playing a mostly defensive role in the midfield, constantly pressured his opponents into costly turnovers throughout the season.

While not having offensive stats on his ledger, he helped lead the defense that had seven shutouts this season. In his career he has scored three goals and assisted on four others. In the Spring 2021, he scored the game-winning goal against Washington and Lee in a 1-0 shutout. He earned Second Team All-ODAC honors during both the 2021 and Spring 2021 seasons along with Third Team honors in 2019.
