Palmerton, PA — Awesome way to start the 2022 season with a 42-29 victory over local rival Lehighton Area. The Palmerton team showed a ton of GRIT fighting through much adversity thrown our way in the form of injuries, cramping on a very humid night and situations faced on the field. In the end, the Palmerton offense rose to the occasion through the air and on land. Matt Machalik finished the night with 348 total yards; 4 passing touchdowns and 2 rushing touchdowns. Kendall Robinson had a huge start to his senior season with 5 catches for 99 yards and 3 touchdowns. Daniel Lucykanish showed his big play ability with a 41 yard touchdown reception. Samantha Perloni did an outstanding job in handling our kicking duties as she had a perfect night 6/6 on extra point attempts. All in all it was a great TEAM effort - This is a fantastic group to work with - excited to get to work for week 2. Next up on the schedule is Catasauqua - Home 7 pm - Friday 9/2/2022
