Jeremy Sanchez, a promising sophomore expected to help ease the loss of receiving depth at St. Bonaventure, was recently lost for the season after breaking a leg in practice.

It’s a big blow for a team that must replace its top six receivers .

‘Based on his fall camp, he was going to have a huge season,’ Coach Todd Therrien said of Sanchez. ‘He was going to be amazing.’

Fortunately, the Seraphs still feature talent aplenty in quarterback Logan Meyer, running back Devon Blackledge and USC-bound offensive lineman Giovanni DiPoala.

St. Bonaventure, ranked No. 4 in the Southland by The Times, opens its season Friday at St. John Bosco.

He is serving his second stint as the UCLA beat writer, which seems fitting since he has covered almost every sports beat except hockey and horse racing. Bolch is also the author of the recently released book “100 Things UCLA Fans Should Know & Do Before They Die.” He previously covered UCLA basketball from 2010-11 before going on to cover the NBA and the Clippers for five years. He happily traded in gobs of hotel points and airline miles to return to cover UCLA basketball and football in the summer of 2016. Bolch was once selected by NBA TV’s “The Starters” as the “Worst of the Week” after questioning their celebrity journalism-style questions at an NBA All-Star game and considers it one of his finer moments.
