Andersson transferred to Cal from Mississippi State in the fall of 2003 and went on to become a three-time All-American, leading the Golden Bears to three consecutive top-5 finishes at the NCAA Championships. She finished her Cal career with a school-record 74.2 stroke average (since broken) and as a three-time All-Pac-10 and two-time All-West Region selection. Individually, she captured the 2005 Spartan Invitational and recorded 16 top-10 finishes, including a sixth-place showing at the 2004 NCAA Championships. A member of the Swedish National team for seven years, she helped her home country to the 2004 World Amateur Team title and a silver-medal finish in 2006. Andersson played professionally for six years and competed in two U.S. Opens. Andersson returned to Cal as an assistant coach and helped the Bears advance to the NCAA Championships in both 2014 and 2015. She has served as head coach at Cal Poly since July 2015 and is a three-time Big West Coach of the Year.
