Bougard stands as one of the most decorated athletes in Mississippi State history. She closed her college career with 16 All-America honors and five school records. Among Bougard's many accomplishments was her 2013 national championship in the pentathlon.
She was also a two-time SEC champion and three-time SEC Field Athlete of the Year. In addition, Bougard broke new ground for the Bulldogs when she became the first-ever MSU woman named to The Bowerman watch list in 2015.

Since her days in Maroon and White, Bougard has continued to excel on a worldwide stage, including competing in the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games where she finished ninth in the heptathlon.
