• Trivia:
Bobby Ray Parks received a 92 score and four-out-of-five star rating from ESPN.com scouting report as he convicingly won two state titles for St George and also Melrose High back in the United States. He was committed with Georgia Tech in 2010 and was a shoo-in for the US NCAA DIV I, but opted to return to the Philippines in the last minute to accept an offer to play for the National University in the UAAP.
