Bergstraser led the Dragons to a 75-22 mark over his three seasons in charge. MSUM reached the NCAA Central Regional final in 2024-25 for the first time in a decade.
"DU is a big deal, and we have a massive sense of pride in representing this program," Bergstraser said in a statement. "I am itching to get to work for this university. We are determined to add to the great winning tradition that is already established in this athletic department.'
Prior to taking over as head coach, Bergstraser served as an assistant coach at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls, MSUM and Quincy University.
He played at St. Cloud State, where he earned all-conference accolades in 2011-12.
