Bersagel was one of the most decorated student-athletes in Wake Forest history. She is one of just five athletes to be named first team All-ACC seven times in her career. She was a four-time All-American and a three-time ACC Champion. A distance runner, Bersagel earned All-America honors three times in the outdoor 10,000 meters and once in the indoor 5,000 meters. She was a first team All-ACC performer twice in cross country, twice in indoor track and three times in outdoor track between 2002 and 2006. Not only was Bersagel outstanding on the track, she excelled in the classroom. She was a third team CoSIDA Academic All-America pick in 2003 and a first team selection in 2005 and 2006 while being named the Academic All-American of the year as a senior. Bersagel is one of just two Demon Deacon athletes to repeat as an Academic All-American. A recipient of the ACC's Weaver-James-Corrigan postgraduate scholarship in 2006, she was also Wake Forest's Edwin Wilson Female Scholar Athlete of the Year three times.
