Early years
Ace Anderson was born on a cold (for Florida) January morning to Maggie and Howard Anderson on a fishing trawler near Long Cabbage Island. Ace grew up in the rural area surrounding Chiefland, FL and helped his parents on their fishing business. His mother Maggie remembers Ace carrying crab pots to and from their trawler by himself even as a young boy. As a freshman at Chiefland High School, Ace began his athletic career as a wrestler known for his fast hands and great footwork. Near the end of his freshman year, the football coach had already recruiter him to play offensive line the following year and got Ace started in the workout room. Ace became known for his dominance on the line, during his time at Chiefland High, the offense conceded the fewest sacks in recent history due to Ace's presence on the field. In his senior year, Ace helped his team finish the season strong only getting eliminated in the state semifinals. Anderson received multiple offers from in-state schools but he opted to play in Gainesville for the University of Florida after being convinced by his parents to stay close by.
College career
As a true freshman, Ace saw little field time but was able to impress in practice and workout sessions to earn a starting spot his sophomore year. During the next three years, the Gators boasted one of the best offenses in the SEC. Anderson held it down in the middle of the pack and was known for pancaking opposing linebackers, his meme game, and his on field leadership. Derick Dalton, the starting quarterback for Ace's last two seasons remarked "Ace was the go to guy for inspiration. He was the most competitive guy in the room and would get us fired up for the big drives." Sadly, during his time at the University of Florida, the Gators were never able to make it past the conference championship losing to Alabama three years in a row. After earning his Bachelor's Degree in Sport Management and the end of his senior year, Ace declared for the ISFL Draft and began his offseason workout regimen to get ready to play on Sundays.

2056
After being drafted fourth overall by the Dallas Birddogs, Ace underwent a reverse Captain America procedure to fill the gap in the Birddogs' offense at running back. He started off strong in his first game at Running Back in Week 2 helping beat the Bondi Beach Buccaneers 21-20, racking up 101 rushing yards in 21 attempts and his first career touchdown. His best game came against the Portland Pythons in Week 12 where he put up 118 yards and 2 touchdowns leading the Birddogs in just their second win of the season. While the 2056 Season was a tough one for the 2-11-1 Birddogs, Ace Anderson was still able rush for just over 1000 yards and was able to find the endzone on five occasions. After being drafted by the Sarasota Sailfish as the 11th pick of the S42, Ace was sent back to Dallas to continue his development before being called up to the big leagues.
2057
As the start of the 2057 season drew ever closer, the city of Dallas became ever more eager to kick off the season. Most of Dallas' promising rookie class of 2056 were returning to the DSFL and the opinion was that Dallas could have a miraculous turnaround after their last place finish in the season prior. However, Anderson's second season in the DSFL saw a drastic change in his overall stats. Over the offseason, Dallas added rookie running back Reginald Arceneaux out of TCU to the running back room to split carries with Ace. At first, Ace was surprised by how many carries the rookie was seeing. However, as the season wore on, he realized that this decision was what as best for the team and he credits it with his uptick in touchdowns over the course of the season. Unfortunately, even though Dallas was much more potent on both sides of the ball this year, their season ended in heartbreak when they narrowly missed out on the matchup. At the end of the season, Ace received the call from the Sailfish front office that he would be stepping up to the ISFL to make his debut in the 2058 season.
2058
Despite his relative inexperience to the rest of the ISFL, Ace Anderson was called up by the Sarasota Sailfish to be the team's lead running back for the 2058 Season after Pete Zuh was traded to the Berlin Fire Salamanders. Over the course of the season, Ace able to rack up almost 1000, 332 receiving yards, and eight touchdowns. In his first game, Ace was held to 54 rushing yards and was unable to find the end zone in Sarasota’s opening win of the 2048 season. His first touchdown came in his next appearance when he was able to find the endzone by converting a 1-yard rush into a score against the Sabercats. Ace’s true breakout, however, would come in Week 3 against the Yellowknife Wraiths. Ace had 132 rushing yards with a season long rush of 51 yards and he even chipped in with 32 receiving yards on two receptions. Even so, Sarasota was unable to make it the playoffs after a disappointing run at the end of the season. The team hopes to rebound in 2059 and hopefully, make it to the postseason.
