David Guerrera, a four-year (1999-2003) goaltender on the Wayne State men's hockey team, has been selected for induction into the WSU Athletic Hall of Fame. A native of St. Leonard, Quebec, Guerrera backstopped the Warriors to three consecutive College Hockey America tournament titles as well as a 2003 appearance in the NCAA Division I tournament. The 2001 CHA tournament Most Valuable Player, he was voted the 2001-02 CHA Player of the Year and the 2002-03 Preseason CHA Player of the Year. In addition to earning his third consecutive WSU team MVP award following the 2001-02 campaign, Guerrera led the CHA in goals-against average (2.34), save percentage (.923) and winning percentage (.816). He was the First Team All-CHA netminder along with earning WSU's Male Student-Athlete of the Year award. He ended the season with an 11-game unbeaten streak (10-0-1, 1.78, .938, 2 shutouts). Another highlight of the 2001-02 season, was a 50-save performance in a 5-4 victory at Wisconsin on Oct. 19. As a senior, he was selected the CHA All-Tournament Team goalie for the second time in three years and was also named to the CHA All-Academic Team for the third straight season. He graduated in 2003 with a degree in physical education and left WSU as the all-time leader in wins (56), goals-against average (2.97), save percentage (.904), minutes (6668:35) and shutouts (7). Following his collegiate career, Guerrera was selected as the Central Hockey League's 2003-04 Rookie of the Year after compiling a 26-4-5 record with the Laredo Bucks and was named the CHL's Playoff Most Valuable Player after recording an 8-2-0 mark in 10 post-season games.
