Pine-Richland Rams Win Third State Championship 28-14

MECHANICSBURG, Pa. — The Pine-Richland Rams defeated Imhotep Charter’s Panthers in the 5A PIAA State Championship, their second title in three years.

Ryan Palmieri, Pine-Richland’s Swiss Army knife who plays both quarterback and defensive back, accounted for all four Rams’ touchdowns—two rushing scores, a pass and a pick-six.

The Rams shortened the game with a heavy dose of run plays, moving the ball at will even though Imhotep knew what was coming.
