Karen Schwartzbauer '87 is the lone All-American in the history of the St. Olaf women's soccer program after collecting National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) Third Team honors in 1986. Schwartzbauer is also one of three Oles to be named to the All-MIAC Team in each of her four collegiate seasons and landed NSCAA All-Area honors in her senior campaign. While complete statistics from her career are not available, Schwartzbauer is believed to be the all-time leader in goals, assists, and points.
 
Schwartzbauer racked up 19 goals and eight assists as a first year and 20 goals and eight assists as a junior, which rank as the top-two goal scoring seasons in recorded program history. She helped lead St. Olaf to the 1983 MIAC Tournament title and a runner-up finish the following year. Schwartzbauer was also a three-year letterwinner for the women's basketball program, scoring over 600 points in 81 career games.
