Not purposely of course if they really want to win. But it does happen. We have had too many players give up or quite playing before the whistle. The results are almost always unfavorable.

Back when I played, our coaches stressed the importance of playing through the whistle, even in adult Semi-Pro.  They'd say, 'don't worry about getting gassed", "we'll spell you for a play, if you need it, just go hard".
