Eric Guerrero expected a lot out of himself early and it showed. He became a three time California state champion in high school. Even with this success, Guerrero never compared himself to his peers but, instead, worked to get better. In college, Guerrero became a three time NCAA champion at Oklahoma State, and, again, he never compared himself to his peers. Always working for more, Eric Guerrero became an Olympian, fulfilling part of his dreams as a child.

Although Guerrero suffered narrow defeats in the Olympics, he will always be revered as an amazing competitor.

Eric Guerrero now channels his energies into coaching. He has helped lead Oklahoma State to the last four NCAA team championships.
