December 16, 2021 | Football
WASHINGTON, DC – East Carolina University linebacker Myles Berry, a junior majoring in industrial distribution and logistics, has been named a Military Bowl 3M STEM Scholar-Athlete.
Berry, who is from Greensboro, North Carolina, is one of the top defensive players for the Pirates who are eligible to play in a postseason bowl game for the first time since the 2014 season. He has a 2.9 grade-point average and has been named to the ECU Honor Roll.
"Myles assisted in the development of a technology-rich service-learning lab for the Industrial Distribution and Logistics degree program at East Carolina University," said Natalie Aman, a teaching instructor for industrial distribution and logistics in ECU's College of Engineering and Technology. "This experiential lab is a student-run operation that serves as a food bank to support the university's efforts to reduce food insecurity across their campus of more than 28,000 students. His contributions to the lab continue to help reduce food insecurity among students at East Carolina University."
The Military Bowl 3M STEM Scholar-Athlete Program honors one football player at each university that is a member of the Atlantic Coast Conference and the American Athletic Conference – the two conferences which are represented in the Military Bowl. These players are studying STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) subjects and/or aspire to STEM careers.
"What an incredible collection of student-athletes, who demonstrate their leadership on the field and in the classroom while tackling challenging subjects that prepare them for the future," Military Bowl President & Executive Director Steve Beck said. "We are thrilled to honor these student-athletes for their dedication and success."
"3M is excited to recognize these outstanding students pursuing degrees in STEM-related fields," said Skip Driessen, Director of 3M Government Markets. "We know how hard these scholar-athletes have worked on the field and in the classroom and look forward to their continued success."
This year's Military Bowl presented by Peraton, benefiting the USO, matches Boston College against East Carolina on Monday, December 27, kicking off at 2:30 p.m. ET and televised on ESPN. Tickets are now on sale. Proceeds from the Bowl benefit the USO and Patriot Point, the Military Bowl Foundation's retreat for wounded, ill and injured service members, their families and caregivers.
