A 40-year-old man accused of stalking UConn women's basketball star Paige Bueckers pleaded guilty to second-degree stalking on Wednesday at Rockville Superior Court in Connecticut.

Robert Cole Parmalee, the man charged with stalking Bueckers, received a one-year suspended sentence and three years' worth of probation, per the plea agreement. In addition, a protective order is in place that will remain in effect until Jan. 4, 2064. Parmalee cannot enter the state of Connecticut during his probationary period and is banned from arenas, hotels and practice facilities where the Huskies basketball team is present. He also cannot enter any WNBA arenas or practice facilities, an order meant to protect Bueckers for any UConn games played in WNBA arenas, and of course, once she turns pro.
