(Lawrenceburg, Ind.) – Good hands, electric speed and a great work ethic are just some of the things Jalen Parks will bring to the collegiate level.

Lawrenceburg’s star receiver signed his letter of intent Friday to play football at Wilmington College.

As a senior, Parks was Lawrenceburg’s second-leading receiver with 50 receptions, 671 yards and three touchdowns. Parks also hurt opposing teams as a kickoff and punt returner, netting nearly 500 yards in the return game.

He will join a crowded receiver room at Wilmington College. The Quakers (1-9 in 2018) return 17 wide outs this fall.
