Last Week’s Stats: 9 tackles (4 solo), 1 forced fumble
Parks, a sophomore defensive back, led Wagner with nine tackles, including four solo stops, on Saturday at FBS opponent Central Michigan. In addition, the Garden State product forced a fumble that was recovered by fellow linemate Akil Lampley at the Chippewas’ 29-yard line early in the fourth quarter. With the nine tackles, Parks set a career-best mark and pushed his season total to 12 in two appearances. He is the first Seahawk in 2025 to earn a weekly award from the NEC this season, and the first to garner NEC/Atlantic Tomorrow’s Office Rookie of the Week distinction since Jaylen Bonelli earned the honor for times in 2023.
