High School[]
Anderson competed at the high school level with the North St. Paul High School team, becoming a two-time letterwinner. In addition, she would skate for the Minnesota Thoroughbreds at the club level, eventually being appointed team captain.
NCAA hockey[]
Joining the Minnesota Golden Gophers in the autumn of 2011, Anderson would log her first career goal, a game-winning tally against Minnesota State on October 21, 2011. She would finish her freshman season as a member of the Gophers NCAA Frozen Four title-winning team. Opting to transfer to Bemidji State in 2012, she sat out the 2012–13 due to transfer rules within the WCHA conference.

On March 7, 2015, Anderson contributed to a historic win as the Beavers defeated the Minnesota Golden Gophers by a 1–0 tally in the semifinals of the WCHA Final Face-Off. She logged the game-winning goal at the 11:46 mark of the third period.[4] Beavers goaltender Brittni Mowat made 37 saves, registering her seventh shutout of the season, a new program record. In addition, it marked the first time that the Beavers advanced to the championship game of the WCHA Final Face-Off.
