Ronda Curtin Engelhardt (born November 2, 1980, in Roseville, Minnesota) is an American ice hockey player and coach. She currently serves as an amateur scout for the Nashville Predators. She was previously head coach of the Minnesota Whitecaps, leading the team to an Isobel Cup victory in 2019. During her playing career with the University of Minnesota Golden Gophers ice hockey team, she was a finalist for the Patty Kazmaier Award, and was selected to the Western Collegiate Hockey Association women's team of the decade in the 2000s.

Career

[edit]

Prior to playing for Minnesota, Curtin was a member of the United States Select Team roster that competed at the 1999 Christmas Cup tournament in Fussen, Germany, on December 27–30, 1999.[1] Some of her teammates included future Olympians Julie Chu, Natalie Darwitz, Jenny Schmidgall and Krissy Wendell.

Curtin played both defense and forward as the University of Minnesota Golden Gophers won the 2001–02 Western Collegiate Hockey Association regular-season title for the second consecutive season. Curtin's season included 45 points (11 goals, 34 assists) in 34 games, making her the first defender in WCHA history to lead the conference in regular-season scoring. She led the WCHA in assists (34) and power-play points (21). During the season, Curtin garnered WCHA Player of the Week honors three times and became the first women's ice hockey player in Minnesota to win the award three times in a single season. For her efforts, she was named the 2002 WCHA Player of the Year, the WCHA Defensive Player of the year, a WCHA First Team selection and the WCHA Tournament Most Valuable Player. For the 2002–03 season, she was named team captain.

After finishing her college playing career, she joined the University of St. Thomas hockey staff as an assistant coach for four seasons and earned her Master's degree.[2][3] She later coached the girls' team at Breck School.

In 2018, she was hired as a co-coach of the professional Minnesota Whitecaps in the National Women's Hockey League for their inaugural 2018–19 season in the league.[4] She was a co-head coach for her first two seasons, leading the Whitecaps to an Isobel Cup win in 2019 and two Isobel Cup finals losses in 2021 and 2023. Following the 2023 season, she left the Whitecaps[5] and joined the Nashville Predators as an amateur scout.[6]

Personal

[edit]

In addition to her athletic achievements, she also participates in various community service projects. Her younger sister, Renee, was a forward at Minnesota.[7] She married professional hockey player Brett Engelhardt and has three children.[8]
