De’Andre Hardy ’00

I was married on May 25, 2013 to a former IWU Residence Hall Director Jennifer Joseph-Morris! My wedding consisted of many former Titans, including Michael McPherson ’01, David Nuckolls ’99, and Mike Clark ’03… all of whom were groomsmen. IWU Head Football Coach and Associate Director of Athletics Norm Eash was also there, along with his wife Cheryl.

Congratulations, De’Andre and Jennifer!

Best Wishes!

Rebecca (Hill) Zimmerman ’00

My husband Steve (’00) and I (also ’00) had the unexpected pleasure of having our daughter, Gwen, land on a YMCA team full of Tiny Titans! We had a wonderful season with Coach Brad Graba (’98, son named William), Mary Beth Kain Landerman (’94, son named Bryson), and Tom Cioni (’98, son named Alex). It was an absolute blast for the kids and the parents!
