Dryden High School Students Explore Sports and Economic Development at Detroit Economic Club Luncheon
Students from Dryden High School attended the Detroit Economic Club’s “2027 Final Four Tip-Off” luncheon on Wednesday, October 14, at MotorCity Casino Hotel in Detroit. Sponsored by Deloitte, the students heard from leaders in college basketball and learned how hosting the 2027 NCAA Men’s Final Four will affect Detroit and Southeast Michigan.
The panel featured Michigan State University men’s basketball head coach Tom Izzo; Dan Gavitt, the NCAA’s senior vice president of men’s basketball; and Andy Katz, a college basketball analyst and correspondent for the Big Ten Network and NCAA. Sports journalist Brad Galli moderated the discussion.
The program offered students a look at the planning and collaboration behind a major sporting event. Speakers discussed opportunities for local businesses, fan experiences, and community involvement as Detroit prepares to welcome the Final Four in April 2027. Students also learned how visitors and spending connected to the tournament can benefit hotels, restaurants, and other businesses throughout Southeast Michigan.
The experience connected classroom learning with careers in sports, business, media, and event planning while giving students an opportunity to hear directly from prominent leaders in college basketball.
Dryden Community Schools thanks Deloitte for sponsoring the students’ attendance and the Detroit Economic Club for providing this educational opportunity.
