⚓💙 Captains Marrying Captains 💍

Amber LoMele Matney ’16 and Andrew Matney ’16 met their first week of freshman year — just a few doors apart in Santoro.

The next four years were filled with walks around the Great Lawn, late-night library sessions, buffalo chicken wrap Wednesdays, and memories alongside their Alpha Phi sisters and Sigma Phi Epsilon brothers.

After graduating together in 2016, Andrew proposed on campus a year later. In 2018, they returned to where it all began and said “I do” at Three Oaks.

In July 2025, they welcomed their son — their greatest joy and future Captain. 💙

CNU gave them more than degrees — it gave them a lifetime of memories. ⚓
