Denise (Huthmacher) `16 and Chris Tripp *15

 Denise (Huthmacher) `16 and Chris Tripp *15


I started at Malone University in the summer of 2011. My now husband, Chris, and I were in Malone's marching band. During band camp he asked me out, to sit with him at lunch, and even just to give me a ride up the hill from the Johnson Center, but I kept denying him. He eventually gave up and started dating someone else, but secretly I was in love with him I just wasn't ready to get into a relationship. Eventually I graduated and moved out of the state. When I moved home a year later I found his profile on Plenty of Fish. I was curious about what he was up to, but I didn't want him to know I looked at his profile. I bit the bullet and looked at his profile and discovered he was still living in the area. A few moments later he sent me a message with his phone number telling me to text him some time. I basically told him to get lost because I didn't want him to know that I still liked him. Five years later we're married with two dogs and a 6 month old son.

Joelle (Rex) `10 and Craig Carnes `10

Joelle (Rex) `10 and Craig Carnes `10 Craig and I met at Malone in the Fall of 2005 as freshman members of the Pioneers Marching Band. Yes, we met at BAND CAMP! He was a boy from Cincinnati and I, a girl from Cleveland, from complete opposite ends of the state and here we were meeting in Canton, Ohio. We learned that we had both been at Malone's Scholar's Day event the year before but never saw each other! During our first year at MU we hung out with the same core group of friends all five of us were pretty inseparable. Our time together as a group was spent watching movies or playing games in the Barn, going to Late Night in the cafeteria especially on nugget night, playing ping pong in the lounge of Gurney (PGB) or Froggy's, watching American Idol in dorms, or making trips to Taco Bell. Band and chorale were the major social outlets for both of us and being in such frequent company made it easy to grow fond of each other. We began dating the summer after our freshma...
