At a 4th July Festival match played the following weekend in Moneygall, Co. Offaly, hometown of President Barack Obama’s Irish Ancestors, the Trim Bulldogs won 28-26, with their Offensive Line playing tough winning football, and their defense getting an all-important safety (worth two points) and then blocked a 2-point conversion by the Drogheda Lightning which was the difference between the teams.
