Kathleen Anne Kauth (born March 28, 1979) is an American ice hockey player who previously competed for the Brampton Thunder during their affiliation with the NWHL.
USA Hockey
Kauth was chosen to be a member of the preliminary roster for the United States women's hockey team competing in the 2002 Winter Olympics. Building on her early involvement with the national team, she went on to represent the U.S. again at the 2006 Winter Olympics, where she played an important role in helping the team secure a bronze medal.[1]
CWHL
Kauth, together with players like Allyson Fox, Kim McCullough, and national team members Sami Jo Small and Jennifer Botterill, led the effort to establish the Canadian Women's Hockey League (CWHL). They collaborated with a group of volunteer business professionals, modeling the league after the National Lacrosse League. The CWHL took on the responsibility of covering expenses such as travel, ice rental, uniforms, and some equipment.[2]
