Campbell County all-state linebacker Levi Palmer is furthering his football future after signing at Montana Tech. The senior was a three-year starter for the Camels on the gridiron. Palmer was a two-time all-state and all-conference selection in 2022 and 2023. He also earned the 4A East Conference Defensive Player of the Year award in 2022.
Palmer helped the Camels to a record of 6-4 in the 2023 season. Campbell County earned the No. 4 seed in the 4A football playoffs but fell to crosstown rival Thunder Basin.
