Tustin’s football team has added a victory to its season total after Long Beach Poly forfeited a 28-27 win against the Tillers on Sept. 5.
Long Beach Poly forfeited the nonleague because it played with an ineligible player, a spokesperson for the Long Beach Unified School District confirmed Wednesday.
The Jackrabbits rallied from a 21-0 deficit to edge Tustin at Veterans Stadium.
