Wolves Fans, Thank You!

Head Coach Boys, Men's Season Summary
March 7, 2025

Wolves Family,

This season was one to remember, and it wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible support of our Buford community. From our families and school administration to the city, sponsors, and every fan who packed the stands—you are the backbone of this program. Your energy and belief in our team fuel us every step of the way.

We set high expectations, and these young men answered the challenge. They committed to the work, embraced the grind, and played for something bigger than themselves. We talk a lot about what it means to wear ‘Buford’ across our chest, and this team upheld that standard in every way.

More than the wins, what makes me proud is how this team competed—with toughness, chemistry, discipline, and an unshakable will. That’s the foundation of our program, and it’s why our season was special. The journey never stops, and we’re already looking ahead to what’s next.

💚💛 GOOOOO WOLVES! 💛💚

— Coach Wes Parker
