Katie Kutas is a true Pioneer as she helped lay the groundwork for what has become one of the most successful athletic programs on the campus of Utica College.

Kutas' career was littered with accomplishments including being named to the Empire 8 All-Conference First Team in three out of her four seasons as a Pioneer. The accolades began to roll in immediately following her freshman year as she burst on the scene and earned Empire 8 Rookie of the Year honors while helping to guide the Pioneers to their first NCAA Division III Tournament appearance in program-history.

Kutas did not slow down and in 2006 she was named the Empire 8 Conference Player of the Year after recording 40 points in her sophomore season. Her average of 2.35 points per game in 2006 ranks fourth on the College's all-time single season list. She had a knack for scoring big goals in her sophomore season as she caged seven game-winners. For her efforts she was also named a 2006 National Field Hockey Coaches Association (NFHCA) First Team North Atlantic All-Region selection.

Kutas currently ranks fourth on the College's all-time list with 98 career points (45 goals, 8 assists), sitting behind three former All-Americans on the College's career scoring list. She averaged 1.46 points per game over the course of 67 career contests and she is one of just four players all-time to score 40+ career goals.

Kutas helped lead the Pioneers to 37 wins in four seasons and she guided Utica to a share of the Empire 8 Conference Championship in 2006. Following her senior season she was selected as a NFHCA Second Team North Atlantic All-Region pick and she was chosen to participate in the prestigious NFHCA Division III Senior All-Star game.

Katie majored in risk management and insurance at UC and was a member of the Gamma Sigma Sigma sorority and the Gamma Iota Sigma risk management and insurance fraternity.
