As a freshman at Oregon State, Beers averaged 13.3 points and 8.6 rebounds per game, earning All-Pac-12 honors from the league's coaches and being named Pac-12 Freshman of the Year and Sixth Player of the Year.[4] In her sophomore season, she was selected to the All-Pac-12 Team.[5] She helped lead Oregon State to its first Elite Eight since 2018, where they ultimately lost to South Carolina.[6]

[11] She was named the USBWA National Player of the Week following the two performances.[12] Beers was named to the All-SEC First Team and earned Honorable Mention All-American honors from the Associated Press, USBWA, and WBCA.[13] She was also a finalist for the Lisa Leslie Award.[14] She was also a first-team Academic All-American, with a 3.51 GPA in multidisciplinary studies.[15] In the NCAA Tournament, Beers had a season-high 18 rebounds against FGCU in the first round, finishing with 25 points and 18 rebounds.[16] She recorded 11 points and 13 rebounds against Iowa in the second round before recording 10 points and 10 rebounds in a Sweet Sixteen loss to UConn.[17]

As a senior, Beers started all 34 games and averaged 15.8 points, 10.4 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 1.0 block per game while shooting 61.5% from the field.[18] She was the only Power Five player to average at least 15.8 points, 10.4 rebounds, and 2.2 assists per game.[19] She recorded 22 double-doubles, the third-most in the NCAA, becoming just the second Oklahoma player to record at least 20 double-doubles in a season.[20] Her 67 career double-doubles ranked among the top 25 in NCAA history.[21] She recorded two separate streaks of six consecutive double-doubles, tied for the second-longest streak in Oklahoma history.[22] Beers became the third Oklahoma player to reach 2,000 career points and 1,200 career rebounds, scoring her 2,000th career point against Florida on March 5.[23] She led the SEC in field goal percentage, ranked second in rebounding, first in double-doubles, and 14th in scoring.[24] She scored in double figures 29 times, including nine 20-point performances, and recorded at least 10 rebounds in 23 games.[25] Beers was named to the All-SEC First Team and earned Third-Team All-American honors from the USBWA and Honorable Mention All-American honors from the AP and WBCA.
