If you know anything about Belizean Sports in the last 20 years, then you'll know who Milton Palacio is. The Belizean son of Dangriga-born parents Clifford and Rita Palacio played in the NBA and European Leagues, and most importantly won gold for Belize in the 1998 CARICOM Games. Well, now, there's a new Palacio who's making his name as a pro athlete, and it's Milton's nephew, Kache Palacio. Kache, who was born in Los Angeles and went to Washington State University where he was a standout linebacker. And though he went undrafted, the news tonight is that he;s been signed by the LA Rams as an undrafted free agent. His father Emile, who went to LA when he was 10 is also his son's personal trainer and he told us that Kache has a promising future in the NFL:..
Notably, KAche who earned his bachelor's degree in three and a half years, will attend his graduation at Washington State this weekend.
If he makes the cut, Kache will be the second Belizean to make it into the NFL. Last year we told you about another athelete with Griga roots, Rakeem Nunez-Roches, who was actually born in Dangriga. He made it into the NFL with the Kansas City Chiefs.
