Alexander Horwath (born March 27, 1987 in Woodbine, Maryland) is an American soccer player who currently plays for SK Brann in Norway.

Horwath began his youth career with D.C. United, remaining with the youth squad from 2001 to 2003. In 2005, he attended college at the University of Connecticut but did not play due to an injury. In 2007, he transferred to the University of Wisconsin. While with Wisconsin, Horwath established himself as his team's starting goalkeeper, appearing in 52 matches in his three years.

Horwath played in the USL Premier Development League during his collegiate career. In 2008, he played for the Northern Virginia Royals and in 2009 with Kansas City Brass. He also played with the Madison 56ers of the National Premier Soccer League in 2007.

At the conclusion of his college career, Horwath trained with Kansas City Wizards and was signed by Major League Soccer in April 2010. During August 2010 he joined San Jose Earthquakes to replace the injured Joe Cannon. After remaining with San Jose for a few weeks, in October 2010 he joined Seattle Sounders and remained with the club until the end of the season.

During the 2011 Major League Soccer offseason Horwath went on trial with New York Red Bulls. On March 25, 2011 it was announced that Horwath had agreed to terms with New York. One day later Horwath made his official debut for New York starting in place of the injured Greg Sutton and Bouna Coundoul who was on international duty, helping his club to a 0-0 draw against Columbus Crew.
