Bastel was born in Upper Sandusky, Ohio. The Bastel family had owned and operated a golf course since the 1930s, and her father worked as the resident pro and the course superintendent. She attended Upper Sandusky High School, where she was a three-time all-state selection for the Upper Sandusky Rams girls' golf team. She graduated from Upper Sandusky in 1998.
Bastel received an athletic scholarship to attend Michigan State University, and played for the Michigan State Spartans women's golf team from 1998 to 2002. She was a member of the Spartans' Big Ten Conference championship team as a junior in 2001, an All-Big Ten selection for four consecutive years, and an All-American as a senior in 2002. Bastel also earned All-Big Ten Academic honors for three years. She graduated from the university with a bachelor's degree in marketing in 2002, and was inducted into the Michigan State Athletics Hall of Fame in 2012.
She played on the U.S. teams in the Curtis Cup and Espirito Santo Trophy in 2002. Bastel was a semifinalist at the 2001 U.S. Women's Amateur, played in three U.S. Women's Opens (2002, 2004, 2005), and won the Ohio State Women's Amateur three times (1999, 2001, 2003).
