Hernandez some prior knowledge of Robinson’s offense

Garfield Coach Lorenzo Hernandez has never coached against University’s coach, E.C. Robinson, or the wishbone offense that Robinson runs.

But Hernandez will bring some previous experience to Friday’s game when the second-seeded Bulldogs (10-3) and the 13th-seeded Wildcats (9-4) play for the City Invitational championship.

‘When I was a kid playing at Huntington Park, he was coaching at Locke,’ Hernandez said of Robinson. ‘We were playing them for a conference championship. And it was the same offense, same everything.

‘It will be interesting to see the same thing on Friday that I saw growing up as a kid.’
