Of the thousands of Division I college athletes, very few ever get the opportunity to play their sport professionally. Before the start of 2020, seven University of San Diego former players were able to extend their careers past the collegiate level. But on Jan. 9, one more name was added to that list — Miguel Berry.

Those who got the chance to watch him play remember his striking speed with the ball and remarkable footwork that allowed him to blow past defenders and score 17 goals in his senior season alone.
