Barry Perez, the district’s assistant superintendent of communications, said police are using video surveillance footage to determine who was responsible for driving the truck across the field and making deep ruts in the turf.

The athletic department is working with the stadium’s turf vendor to make repairs.

Perez said he didn’t expect any delays to the school’s football season.

“Our police department has acted quickly on this matter, and we hope to identify the perpetrators and prosecute to the extent possible,” Perez said.
