Arlie Parker (born 1938) is a Canadian retired ice hockey

defenseman who was a two-time All-American for St. Lawrence University in New York.[1]

Career

Parker played junior hockey for the

NCAA Tournament. The next season Parker became a star for the team, becoming an All-American for the team during its third consecutive league championship. In the national tournament, St. Lawrence won its first semifinal game in its sixth appearance and advanced to the first championship game in program history.[2] Unfortunately, Parker's team faced an overwhelming Denver
squad and lost by the largest margin of any championship game (as of 2020) 2–12.

In Parker's senior season the Saints joined with 27 other teams to form a new conference,

Parker continued his playing career after graduating, appearing briefly for the senior Kingston Frontenacs. In 1963 he joined the professional ranks fully, playing on two teams over three seasons in the Eastern Hockey League. After retiring in 1966 he was inducted into the St. Lawrence Athletic Hall of Fame in 1988 for his excellence as a baseball player as well as on the ice.[6]
