Its offense won’t be awarded any style points, but Edison emerged with a 27-10 victory over Los Alamitos tonight at Huntington Beach High after the Chargers scored two touchdowns on defense and one on special teams.

Edison’s offense? Blech. The Chargers did not score a touchdown on offense and gained 119 yards.

‘The offense just never got in a groove because we never had the ball much,’ Edison Coach Dave White said.

No. 3 Edison (8-0, 3-0 Sunset League) will play No. 15 Fountain Valley (8-0, 3-0) next Friday at Cal State Fullerton in what could be an epic ‘Battle for the Bell.’

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.
