(October 18, 2007)--When fans of Blanco High School in the Hill Country held signs reading "Slaughter the Deer," they apparently weren't just flush with team spirit.
The Comfort High School Deers volleyball team found a rotting, bloated carcass of a 90-pound doe in their bus before losing an important match Tuesday against Blanco.
Comfort team captain Maeghan Eckert said her squad couldn't focus after discovering the prank.
She says she believes Blanco should forfeit its victory.
If the culprits impressed any fans, their cover-up probably didn't.
One of the Comfort High parents, Brian Vaughan, is a law enforcement officer.
He says he found a bloody trail leading from the bus to a nearby pickup.
Blanco is about 50 miles north of San Antonio.
