STORRS, Conn. - The funeral for a University of Connecticut football player stabbed last weekend has been scheduled in his hometown of Miami.
Services for 20-year-old Jasper Howard will be held at 11 a.m. Monday at New Birth Baptist Church. A viewing will be held the day before at Richardson Mortuary.
Howard was stabbed outside a university-sanctioned dance early Sunday, hours after helping the Huskies to a homecoming game win over Big East foe Louisville.
Nobody has been charged with the stabbing. Police say they have made "significant progress" in the investigation but are still seeking photos and videos of the crime scene.
The funeral was scheduled for a Monday so Howard's teammates could attend.
