Offseason Outlook: Palisades Pirates

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Palisades Pirates are coming off a fantastic 2022 season that saw them go 8-3 overall including 8-2 in conference play. The Pirates were led by a strong defense that allowed just over 17 points per game to go along with a quality offense that averaged just under 27 points per game themselves. After starting their season off with a loss against Bangor, Palisades would win five of their next six games, their only loss in that span to Southern Lehigh. They would finish off the regular season on a three-game winning streak before falling to Catasauqua in early November to end their season. Overall, it was a tremendous bounce-back season for the Pirates after going 2-8 in 2021. The Pirates have been one of the better programs in the Colonial-Schulill Conference since it's inception but have a history of success dating back to the Colonial Conference. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Key Losses</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>FS Kai Stiansen</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>DT Sheldon Carr</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>RB Steven Lilly</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>C James Mitsch</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>DE Galen Limantour</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>DT Riley Campbell</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>WR Corey Hoffman</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/pennsylvania-prepredzone-2026-player-breakdowns-no-1-no-5/">MUST READ: TOP 2026 PROSPECTS NO.1 - No.5 </a></strong>| <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/hawks-slept-on-fbs-fcs-western-pa-talent-24-part-3/"><strong>HAWK'S SLEPT ON FBS/FCS WESTERN PA TALENT (24'): PART 3</strong></a> |<strong> <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/district-1-montgomery-county-new-names-to-the-site/">District 1, Montgomery County: New Names to the Site</a></strong> | OFFSEASON: IMANI CHRISTIAN ACADEMY PROSPECTS</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Key Returnees</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>RB Daniel Haubert</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>WR Riley Sessinger</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>FS Logan Sharpe</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>RB Kyle Kirsch</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>WR Marco Campos</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>TE Lane Frankenfield</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>WR Austin Rambo</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>OC Jon Struass</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>OG Mark Russ</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>LB Angelo Ziccardi</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>RB John Haubert</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>DE [player_tooltip player_id='1227263' first='Chase' last='Smith']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>QB [player_tooltip player_id='1352725' first='Jack' last='Trickel']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2023 Season Outlook</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Palisades lost a large chunk of production this offseason but there is still plenty of hope that the Pirates could be in for another big season in 2023. Look for Daniel Haubert, Riley Sessinger, Marco Campos, Lane Frankenfield, and others. For Palisades, the defense is going to be the key once again this upcoming fall. If the defense is able to replicate their success, it should be plenty for the Pirates until they work out everything on offense after having to replace the aforementioned production on offense. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Other Previews to check out:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/pennsylvania-off-season-program-outlook-wyomissing/">Wyomissing</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/offseason-outlook-pottsville-bangor-slaters/">Bangor</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/pennsylvania-off-season-program-outlook-penn-manor/">Penn Manor</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/pennsylvania-offseason-outlook-northwestern-lehigh-tigers-football/">Northwestern Lehigh</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/offseason-outlook-blue-mountain-eagles/">Blue Mountain</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/offseason-outlook-notre-dame-green-pond-crusaders/">Notre Dame Green Pond Crusaders</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/offseason-outlook-jim-thorpe-olympians/">Jim Thorpe Olympians</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/offseason-outlooklehighton-indians/">Lehighton</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/offseason-outlook-saucon-valley/">Saucon Valley</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/offseason-outlook-wilson-area-warriors/">Wilson Area</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>REGISTER FOR THE PREPREDZONE PROSPECT TOUR IN MANHEIM ON MAY 6</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://events.prepredzone.com/info?website_id=4&amp;event_id=753">Don't forget to register for our PrepRedzone Prospect Tour on May 6 in Manheim</a><strong>.&nbsp;</strong>Spots are limited, so be sure to register as soon as possible to ensure your own spot.
