Cerritos High School will no longer play varsity football for the rest of the season.
The Long Beach Press-Telegram reports that the program has been suspended for safety reasons. The school will continue to play a lower-level schedule.
Cerritos was 0-10 last season and is 0-4 this season.
Several other schools have dropped varsity teams this season for various reasons, including Playa del Rey St. Bernard, North Hollywood Campbell Hall and Temecula Rancho Christian.
Los Angeles West Adams forfeited its game last week against San Marcos Mission Hills, citing safety issues and lack of players.
