Former Saint Francis tight end Kevin Parker begins his second season as a graduate assistant working with the team’s tight ends.
Last year, Parker helped a tight ends corps in both run-blocking for the prolific SFU rush attack and in pass-catching. Freshman Matt Valenzuela made his first career touchdown catch at Central Connecticut while averaging over 13 yards per reception.
As a tight end for the Red Flash from 2009-12, Parker made 28 receptions for 357 yards and four touchdowns. He was also an NEC Academic Honor Roll selection.
A native of Monessen, Pa., Parker starred for the Greyhounds before moving on to Loretto.
