Holly Anderson, Columbus North senior golfer

Her performance last week: “At the North-East match, I had one bad hole, and then at sectional, I played pretty well, considering the weather. I could have done a lot better, but I’m happy with it.”

Best advice: “(Older sister and Ball State sophomore golfer) Sydney always tells me to just take one shot at a time, and if I have one bad hole to not let it get to me because that’s usually what happened when I first started to golf. But if I just take it one shot and one hole at a time, that helps me play better.”
Athletics goal: “I hope to get to state this year as a team and hopefully get top 10 (individually).”
If you could travel anywhere: “Probably Hawaii because I’ve never been there before, and I’ve heard it’s really pretty.”
