ANDERSON SAYS: "Pepperdine has been a dream school of mine since I started my golf journey. Initially, what drew me to the school was the beautiful campus, amazing facilities, strong academics, and the great California weather. However, what really made me choose Pepperdine was the winning tradition and the coaching. I believe that Coach Laurie and Coach Kacey will help me develop into a very impactful college player, and ultimately achieve my goal of one day playing on the LPGA Tour. Pepperdine is an environment that I can see myself growing and succeeding in, as both an athlete and student, and I'm so thankful for the opportunity to add to the winning tradition."
