A mid-July golf game between Blessed Trinity coach Tim McFarlin and Buford coach Jess Simpson eventually led to the Buford High football team accepting an invitation to open the 2016 season in Dublin, Ireland. The Wolves will begin their regular season slate on September 2 as a lead-up to the Aer Lingus College Football Classic between Georgia Tech and Boston College the following day. “I knew of Marist and Blessed Trinity and invited them,” said Patrick Steenberge, owner and operator of Global Football.
