Palazzolo has been a staple on this Somers squad which won 3/4 Class A State Championships. Palazzolo, was a Swiss army knife, and heading to Stonehill to play football.

The 5’8″ WR, falls on the shorter side of the spectrum, but is an elite threat to any football squad. Palzzolo, has elite speed, and is an incredibly shifty player. He is a special teams star, and has excellent route running abilities. Stonehill is getting a valuable playmaker from him.

Congratulations Dean!

Standing at 5’8″ 155-pounds, Palazzolo has an average size for the WR position. Despite this, the Somers star, makes up for his size with his playmaking ability. 

Palazzolo has a quick first step, catching DB’s off guard allowing him to become an elite deep threat. His physicality is unmatched as he displays the ability to make tough catches through contact and haul in 50/50 balls. He displays a solid understanding of the route tree and has an above average IQ. A few routes he excels in are posts and corners. In these routes he displays his quick change of direction.

Palazzolo is a sneaky good prospect who is certainly a top pass catcher in the section.

Outstanding athleticism that flashes on tape, especially when it comes to running deep routes. The acceleration to get moving by the DB in a hurry was a big portion of his ability to make big-time plays. Given these points, Palazzolo knows how to make double moves a staple of his route running. Evidently, making diving and over-the-shoulder catches in traffic is a huge plus. Correspondingly, this is a receiver with fluid hips and feet that granted him great separation during route operation. Will provide return usage on special teams.   

Palazzolo is a super twitchy slot receiver who can impact the return game, and while his production lies at the WR position, he has the athleticism to potentially impact the game as a defensive back as he gets bigger.

Palazzolo is a really solid route runner. I have seen him do some work live, and he runs routes, changing up his tempo and using his burst to separate out his breaks.
