Shrader represented the United States as a 16-year-old at the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich, Germany. She swam the butterfly leg for the gold medal-winning U.S. team in the preliminary heats of the women's 4×100-meter medley relay, but was ineligible to receive a medal under the 1972 rules because she did not swim in the event final. Individually, she also competed in the women's 100-meter butterfly and finished fifth in the final with a time of 1:03.98. All 5 top finishers broke the world and Olympic record.[1]
