The CIF State office denied the appeal of Clark Livingston, a senior quarterback who was trying to become athletically eligible for football at La Habra after transferring there from Orange Lutheran in late summer.
La Habra coach Frank Mazzotta confirmed the denial of the appeal.
Livingston’s football athletic eligibility at La Habra was denied by the CIF-Southern Section, and his appeal to the section was turned down, too. He then took his case to the CIF State office.
The section and state offices have not disclosed reasons for their decisions.
Livingston could be eligible to play other sports at La Habra.

NO. 4 ORANGE LUTHERAN (3-0) VS. NO. 9 LA HABRA (2-1)
Where, when: Cerritos College, Friday, 7 p.m.
Outlook: Lutheran worked over Tustin last week, 45-6. We expected a Lutheran victory, but not a 39-point victory. The Lancers missed the playoffs last year with a team loaded with excellent juniors and sophomores, and those players are all a year older and a year better. Quarterback Conner Sullivan was in competition all summer for the Lancers starting quarterback position, got it for sure when Clark Livingston transferred out of Lutheran, and looks like maybe he should have the guy all along – he has completed 78 percent of his throws for 537 yards and six touchdowns with only one interception.
