The Cougars (5-1) knotted the score at 65 on a 3-pointer by Michael Flowers with 2:49 left to play, but Bergersen answered with a three-point play and EWU stayed in front from there.
Ethan Price had 12 points for the Eagles, while Bergersen and Angelo Allegri scored 10 each.
Tyrell Roberts scored 23 points to pace the Cougars. Flowers added 21 points and nine rebounds.
