Bernstein etched his name throughout the Johns Hopkins baseball record book during his career and still ranks among Hopkins' all-time leaders in numerous categories. The only two-time First Team All-American in school history, Bernstein finished his career as Hopkins' all-time leader in hits (183), doubles (36), and RBIs (120) and among the all-time leaders in runs scored (144), stolen bases (80), walks (72), and at bats (464).
In addition, he set then single-season school records for hits (69/1989), RBIs (49/1989), and stolen bases (35/1990). His 31-game hitting streak from May 7, 1989 through April 8, 1990 was a JHU record and ranked as the third-longest in NCAA III history at the time. He still ranks among the top 10 in school history in eight categories.
Bernstein's individual success translated into success on the field for the Blue Jays, who posted a 109-42 (.722) record during his career, won four MAC Southeast Championships, two UAA Championships, one MAC Championship, and one NCAA South Region Championship (1989). The 1989 team placed third at the NCAA III College World Series in what remains Hopkins' only trip to the World Series. After graduating from Johns Hopkins, Bernstein went on to graduate from Law School at Hofstra University and is currently an attorney with Amerada Hess Corporation. He and his wife, Michele (JHU Class of 1991) reside in East Brunswick, NJ.
