It usually happens at smaller schools that don't have enough players to play full JV games. They have to use some of the would-be JV players during the varsity game and they are limited to six quarters a night, so they don't have enough quarters left to play a full JV game.
Some of them will just play one JV quarter. Some only have 7-8 players total and will only play the varsity game with no JV game at all.
This is the exception more than the rule. The vast majority of nights are JV/V doubleheaders.
