2002

Greg Parks, a native of Edmonton, Alberta, capped his four-year Falcon career by earning All-American honors in his senior campaign of 1988-89. That winter, he finished third in the nation in scoring, with 74 points in 47 games, earning All-CCHA in addition to All-American honors. Parks had 32 goals and 42 assists for the Falcons, who earned an NCAA berth for the third consecutive season and was named the team's MVP.

Parks capped his career as the school's third-leading scorer with 240 points. He became only the seventh BGSU player to score 100 career goals, finishing with 101, and he added 139 assists. Parks still ranks fourth on the BGSU career scoring list, and he is ninth in goals and sixth in assists on those school lists.

While at BG, Parks helped the Falcons to a four-year total of 117 wins, tying the school record set by the 1976-79 teams for wins over a four-year period. The Falcons advanced to Joe Louis Arena for the CCHA Finals in all four of Parks' seasons, and made three NCAA appearances. BGSU went 117-55-7 (.673) during that time, including a 81-40-7 (.660) CCHA mark.

Following his BGSU career, Parks joined the professional ranks. He made it to the NHL, playing for the New York Islanders in parts of three seasons (1990-93) and totaling points in 23 career NHL games.

Greg Parks was inducted to the BGSU Athletic Hall of Fame in 2002.
