Report: Western Michigan cooked poster, broke trophy in Idaho locker room after September win

Following a 45-33 Sept. 13 win in Idaho, Western Michigan players left the visitors locker room in a complete state of disarray, according to The Associated Press.

The report states sinks were knocked loose, a trophy was broken, lockers were vandalized and dirty towels were left everywhere, among other things.

The damage was so bad Idaho athletic director Rob Spear billed WMU $500 for the cleanup and repair costs, although the final tab may have been higher. WMU AD Kathy Beauregard didn't hesitate to comply.

"As you will see the locker room was left quite messy," Spear wrote to Beauregard in a Sept. 15. email. Spear said the locker room is normally used by his school 's track-and-field team.

Players also ripped down a signed championship poster and cooked it in a microwave along with other items.

"We may have more serious problems related to the damage done to the sink's (sic) in locker rooms A&B," Spear wrote. "Apparently those sinks are loose and may need to be remounted."

Beauregard sent a note of apology, telling Spear she will heighten the school's standards in order to mitigate any future acts of disrespect.

"Again we do apologize and if it helps at all we have implemented new policies to make sure we never put any team we play in this situation again," she said.

Although the incident occurred nearly a month ago, The Associated Press obtained emails and photos of the carnage through a public records request Monday.
