Catholic Central’s Young Professionals Organization (YPO) hosted a March Madness Watch Party on Friday, March 20, 2026, in the school’s STEM Wing. Approximately 100 alumni attended the event.

Open to alumni under 45, the gathering gave attendees an opportunity to watch NCAA Tournament games together in the 270-degree Immersion Theater while spending time with fellow Shamrocks. Food and refreshments were available throughout the evening.

Guests also had the chance to view a to-scale model of Catholic Central’s upcoming campus additions, offering a preview of future development plans.

The event included a bracket challenge and game squares, with prizes awarded to winners. A Game Day Grill was given to the squares winner, and a 256GB iPad was awarded to the bracket challenge champion. Prizes were sponsored by Ansara Restaurant Group.

The event ran from 5 to 8 p.m. and provided a chance for alumni to reconnect and return to campus.
