Palisch is a 6-5, 190-pound lefty from Jesuit College Prep High School in Richardson, Texas. He was a 2016 MaxPreps All-American, a first-team all-district and state tournament MVP, and the captain of his football and baseball teams as a senior.
The Knights open the 2018 season on May 30 with the seventh-annual Science, Engineering & Arts Day game against the Portland Sea Dogs. They begin WCL play at Kelowna on June 6; their WCL home opener is June 12, against Wenatchee.
