Where should the parenthetical citation be placed in the sentence?
Because of the way you have worded your sentence, you have a choice. either, 'The recent gold medal winner (Won, Me, 2013) told reporters, “I’ve learned a lot from my coaches, and I hope to make them proud.” OR The recent gold medal winner told reporters, “I’ve learned a lot from my coaches, and I hope to make them proud.” (Won, Me, 2013). The standard is at the end, but it really depends on the way you have constructed the sentence.

Help with MLA in text citation: two works with same title?
I am in the (very, very slow) process of writing a research paper, and I have come across a problem: I may be citing two encyclopedia articles with the same title. Here they are: “Edgar Allan Poe.” Authors and Artists for Young Adults. Vol. 14........ “Edgar Allan Poe.” Enclyclopedia of World Biography, 2nd ed. 17 vols......

If you are only citing from one source, do you have to use in text citations?
It depends on the professor. I do a ton of writing and usually never site in text.. I have had a couple professors call me out on this, but my grades have never suffered because of my lack of in text citation.I often worry when I turn in Essays for the first time (new professor) that I'm going to receive a bad grade simply because I did not cite a reference correctly. My solution thus far has been to never quote anyone that I cannot attribute to the work directly within the sentence. I find myself writing things like " According to Narijuna, in his book " In Praise of Dharmadhatu", we are given several examples of Buddhist ethics.. rather than..... Narijuna's view on Buddhist ethics are as follows... or ... On page 32 of his Book, "Catastrophe", Keys states... rather than.... Keys concludes that the decline of classic civilizations came as a result of a natural disaster. .... If my arm has been twisted- I believe the correct way to sight in accordance of APA is in parenthesis in the order of author, title, year, and page. In certain cases, I believe you only need certain info such as the Author and page when referencing a work numerous times in one work. I'd ask the professor how he/she wants you to cite to avoid confusion... Maybe next time when I'm in doubt- I'll take my own advice as well.
