A love and passion for horses came at an early age for Chelsea Anheuser, senior in marketing and hunt seat rider for Auburn's Equestrian team. At the age of 6, Anheuser said she was driving somewhere with her mother and told her to pull off onto the side of the road so she could take her to a barn and sign up for lessons. "I always really loved horses," Anheuser said. Anheuser grew up in Alpharetta, Ga., and trained at five different barns before college. In 2006, she graduated from Milton High School in Milton, Ga., and was recruited to the equestrian team. Equestrian coach Greg Williams said it's hard not to feel Anheuser's passion for the sport. "It doesn't take long at all talking to her for anybody to tell how much this means to her," Williams said. Anheuser said her parents, John and Deidre Anheuser, have supported her every step of her horse-riding journey. "My mom has just always been with me ever since I started," Anheuser said. "Traveling and taking me to horse shows, she always supported me and pushed me to be the best I could be."
