It wasn't just under 35 they failed to turn out. Even Hispanic voters back Trump more than previous Republicans.
Hispanics swung 8 points more toward Trump than Romney based on exit polls, but Hillary Clinton lost 15-20 point margins with the under 35 vote compared to Obama in states like Florida, Pennsylvania, and Ohio. In addition to much smaller turnout.
The DNC not rallying or turning out their young vote was a much bigger factor this election than the Hispanic vote, at least compared to 2012.
But yes, the Hispanic and Black vote not turning out as much was a was a factor in her loss. But the two I mentioned are the biggest in the Rust Belt and Midwest. A little less in Florida since the Hispanic vote is bigger there.
