In your situation, we have to take the JV Coach's word. A player that is injured or sick is not considered an eligible player in your scenario, BUT if it was discovered later that the JV Coach lied about the player's condition just so she didn't have to play the fourth quarter I would that the powers to be would put the hammer down on the JV Coach and the VAR Coach for unethical behavior.

P.S. Of course schools will punish coaches for unethical and unsportsmanlike behavior when pigs fly.
