Mr. Garner is a native of Baltimore.  He graduated from the Friends School of Baltimore and Morgan State University.  He has been an assistant coach at Patterson High School, Baltimore Poly and most recently at McDaniel College.  He is an adjunct professor of physical education at Coppin State University and will continue in that capacity while coaching the Panthers.
