El Camino, Harbor Will Kick Off ’88 Football Season
El Camino and Harbor colleges will open their 1988 football seasons when they go against each other on Sept. 10 at El Camino.
El Camino is coming off a perfect 11-0 year, including a 24-6 victory over Taft in the Pony Bowl. The JC Grid Wire named them national champions. Harbor struggled through a 2-7-1 year in 1987 under first year head coach Chris Ferragamo.
For the Warriors, who will compete in the new three-tiered Mission Conference, it will be the only non-conference game. For Harbor, it will be a chance to whip up some local interest.
The new Mission Conference has also changed its starting times for next season. Conference games will start at 7 p.m. The new kickoff time is a compromise between teams that wanted to start at 6 p.m.--to assure better media coverage of late-ending games--and those who wanted to maintain the traditional 7:30 starts.
