A veritable giant among men in Valley sports history, Guerrero was an original Bronc great. After starting at the university as golf coach and professor of Physical Education in 1969, he worked for 28 years to turn out fine athletes and successful students.
Along the way Guerrero earned admission into the RGV Sports Hall of Fame and the All-American Intercollegiate Golf Coaches Hall of Fame, and it all started in Mission. As a 140-pound high schooler, Guerrero blocked for the great Tom Landry on the Eagles' 12-0 regional football champ, and later attended college at Pan American College and Texas A&M University, playing golf for both schools.
After a stint in the Navy, Guerrero was a school principal for 10 years before joining the Broncs. Until his retirement in 1997, Guerrero developed a number of standout golfers and guided the golfers to an even better record in the classroom.
