Rosamond Appeals Playoff Ouster

Rosamond High, removed from the Southern Section Division X championship football game last week after giving altered game videotape to opponent Orange Lutheran, is making a last-ditch attempt to return to the playoffs.

Attorney Olaf Landsgaard, representing the Rosamond High Sports Boosters, appeared Tuesday in Bakersfield Superior Court seeking a restraining order to halt Saturday’s Division X game between Orange Lutheran and Cerritos Valley Christian, which replaced Rosamond.

Judge Arthur Wallace continued the matter for two days, saying he would rule on Thursday.
