The 6-0, 195-pound blueliner played two seasons with the University of Minnesota-Duluth (NCAA) where he appeared in 79 games and recorded 50 points (11-39=50) to help the Bulldogs claim back-to-back National Championships in 2018 and 2019.
In the 2019 NCAA Frozen Four, Anderson was named to the All-Tournament Team and factored into all three of Minnesota-Duluth's goals (1-2=3) in the team's 3-0 national championship win over Massachusetts.
Anderson represented Team USA at the IIHF World Junior Championship in consecutive years, helping the U.S. to a bronze medal in 2018 before captaining Team USA to a silver medal in 2019.
In 14 games over two appearances, he amassed six points (2-4=6) and a plus-5 rating. In 2019, his five points (2-3=5) in seven games ranked third-most among all tournament defensemen.
