Jeff Parke (born March 23, 1982 in Abington, Pennsylvania) is an American soccer player who plays central defense for Red Bull New York of Major League Soccer.
Parke was drafted by the MetroStars 60th and last overall in the 2004 MLS SuperDraft after completing his college career with Drexel University. He played extremely well in the 2005 preaseason, scoring the game-winning goal against Norway's Viking FK as the MetroStars won La Manga Cup. Then, not only did he surprise by earning a starting place on the team, partnering US national team stalwart Eddie Pope, he grew into one of the most promising young defenders in the league. Parke ended the year with a goal and an assist while playing in all but two games for the Metros. He remained an important part of the team's defense in 2005 and 2006.
