UCLA’s Shah to Miss Opener
Sharmon Shah, counted on to share running back duties for UCLA, will undergo arthroscopic surgery on his left knee today.
“I talked with him and he said that after he had lifted weights and run, his knee started swelling,†Bruin Coach Terry Donahue said Tuesday. “He had (a test) and they found torn cartilage. He doesn’t know when he did it.â€
Donahue said the injury will keep Shah sidelined through UCLA’s Sept. 4 opener against California at the Rose Bowl.
Shah, from Dorsey High, rushed for 145 yards in 48 carries as a freshman.
