In cooperation with the community of Warrensburg, the University of Central Missouri will hold a welcome home pep rally and parade on Monday, March 31, honoring the 2014 NCAA-II Men’s Basketball National Champion Mules Basketball team.
Members of the campus community and the Greater Warrensburg Area Chamber of Commerce and Visitors Center and UCM Athletics have planned a parade that will begin at 5:30 p.m. on Monday, March 31, at the corner of Holden and Ming Streets in Warrensburg, just south of where Holden Street is closed. The parade will travel south on Holden Street, turn right on Houx Street, and then head to the Multipurpose Building after turning right on Washington Street. A pep rally coordinated by UCM Athletics will follow at 6 p.m. in the Multipurpose Building.
The Mules won the second NCAA men’s national basketball championship in school history on Saturday with an 84-77 victory over West Liberty (W.Va.) in Evansville, Ind. The Mules beat the Nos. 4, 1 and 7 ranked teams in the Elite Eight to claim the national title and finished the season at 30-5 overall.
