Sachem East alum and Sacred Heart rising sophomore Trevor Guerrera had an outstanding freshman year in Connecticut.

He competed in the USATF Junior Outdoor Track & Field Championships at the famed Hayward Field and was one of just 18 competitors to race the 800 Meters in the 19 and under age category, according to his school.

The following text appeared in the Sacred Heart Athletic Website over the summer:

Guerrera finished the race in 1:56.12, capping a stellar freshman campaign in which he took home gold in the 800 Meters at the Northeast Conference Indoor Championships.

He also became just the second freshman in program history to earn All-NEC honors in cross country, finishing tenth at the conference championships in the fall.

The three time NEC Track & Field Rookie of the Week, he was part of the bronze medal distance medley team at the NEC Indoor Championships, as well as the 4 x 400 Meter Relay team that finished sixth, bringing his point total to 19.

He also helped SHU earn nine points at the NEC Outdoor Championships, placing fourth in the 800 Meters and fifth as part of the 4 x 400 Meter team.
