A lot of resilience and a little bit of luck led the Chelmsford High School to a huge comeback football win at Lowell on Friday night.
Trailing by 16 early in the second half and by 11 with 3:52 to go in the game, the Lions roared back for a stunning 48-44 Merrimack Valley Conference win at Cawley Stadium.
Sparked by a pair of kickoff returns for touchdowns by Braeden Coddaire, including one in the game’s final minutes to cut Lowell’s lead to 44-41, Chelmsford improved its record to 4-1.
“We knew we weren’t out of the game,” Coddaire said. “We’ve come back from that many times before. Our coaches were saying just one play turns the whole game around, and that’s what happened. I was lucky enough to get two of them.”
