There will be a parade to honor the national champion UConn women's basketball team beginning at 3 p.m. on Sunday, Governor Dannel P. Malloy announced today.

Unlike previous parades, this one will culminate with a rally at the XL Center rather than at the State Capitol.

Also, on Monday there the University of Connecticut Alumni Association will play host to an evening reception on Monday at the Werth Family Champions Center. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and a program beginning at 7:30 p.m.

The event will feature complimentary beer and wine service, assorted hors d’oeuvres and desserts. The cost to attend is $75 per person.
