Time to celebrate: The Marist sideline celebrates after Friday's 28-13 victory over Blessed Trinity.
Marist coach Alan Chadwick became the 35th football coach in U.S. history to win 400 games Friday night, and North Cobb beat a No. 1-ranked team for the first time in 62 years.
Like North Cobb, Marist and Chadwick took out a No. 1-ranked team, Blessed Trinity of Class 5A, 28-13. Not even Chadwick commonly beats top-ranked teams. It was his fifth victory over a No. 1, the first since 2009, when Marist beat Tucker.
Chadwick’s career record is 400-73, all compiled at Marist, the DeKalb County Catholic school that promoted him to head coach in 1985. In Georgia, he trails only retired Lincoln County coach Larry Campbell, who has 477.
