OUTLOOK ON HERNANDEZ
The Beavers will greatly miss Hernandez, who was a strong performer at wide receiver for three seasons. He was an excellent route runner, sure-handed pass catcher, and always seemed to make an incredible play when needed. Not only was he a strong receiver on the field, Hernandez has been great in the classroom, being named a Google Cloud Second-Team Academic All-American in December of 2018. Hernandez exhausted his eligibility after the 2018 season.
