Chelsea will be defending their home turf for the first time on Friday when they go up against Briarwood Christian at 7:00 PM. The MaxPreps rankings say the odds are against Chelsea, but that can only make success all the sweeter.
Chelsea had to kick off their season with an away game, and unfortunately wound up with a long bus ride home. They found themselves the relunctant recipients of an unpleasant 9-42 punch to the gut against Oak Mountain last Friday. Chelsea were in a tough position by the half, with the score sitting at 0-28.
Briarwood Christian also just played their first game, also were on the road, and also didn't get the result they wanted. They lost to Vestavia Hills by a decisive 0-20 margin.
With both teams hitting sour notes in their previous games, they will no doubt be looking to produce a better score. Neither of those teams managed to put together many points in their previous game, so their meeting could be a low-scoring affair.
