TEMPERANCE, Mich. -
To a young athlete there are few things more important than playing on home turf in front of mom and dad. But vandals tried to deny them that opportunity at Bedford High School.
Fertilizer was used to kill grass on the school football field. It displayed the image of male genitalia.
It's forced the cancellation of four junior varsity and freshmen games and is threatening the varsity homecoming game next week. That's why these parents are tackling the job themselves.
"They had three away games. Next week is their first home game. It would be really bad if they had to play their first home game somewhere else," said Rob Johnson, a football dad.
Police are seeking warrants against two teens who they say got the idea off an Internet photo and a 50-year-old mother who helped them.
