After growing up in Los Gatos and attending Archbishop Mitty High School, Norbutas starred immediately for the Broncos. She was a key cog as the Broncos went 14-5 in 1989 and became the first Santa Clara women's team in any sport to receive a bid to the NCAA Tournament. History continued as the team became the first to make the College Cup as well.
 
The success didn't end there for Norbutas or the Broncos. She was named an All-American in 1991 and 1992 and was named to the College Cup All-Tournament Team in 1990 as the Broncos made the College Cup in three of her four seasons.
 
Santa Clara posted 54 wins, highlighted by an 18-1-1 season in 1990, during Norbutas' storied career.
