Anthony and Caitlin tied the knot in Wolcott, CT, Sept. 8, 2018, with many of their Eastern friends helping them celebrate their special day. They honeymooned in Aruba, where Caitlin went on her first deep-sea fishing expedition, catching her share of Wahoo and Mahi-Mahi.
Caitlin and Anthony met on campus in spring 2010 through mutual friends connected to the rugby club. While on campus, they both worked as office assistants in Constitution Hall, and were very involved with TV22, Caitlin as a producer and anchor and Anthony as sports anchor and lead anchor in his senior year. Both were communication majors. They still come up for the rugby alumni game each spring and count many longtime friends among Eastern’s rugby faithful.
The Amatos live in Washington, D.C., with their two rescue cats Rory and Loki. A former account executive at TicketNetwork in South Windsor, CT, Anthony is vice president of sales at 1Ticket.com.
Anthony ran his second half-marathon this past March and plays in the DCHL, the local co-ed indoor floor hockey league, as well as the Washington Renegades rugby club. Caitlin loves her job as a news producer at WTTG-Fox 5 TV, which serves the District of Columbia, Maryland and northern Virginia. “I gather news stories, assign reporters and write scripts. I’m responsible for making sure the newscast goes off without any issues. Eastern helped fuel my love for news and writing. My TV production classes helped me to prepare for the real world of news."
