Will Guarino

Will Guarino is in his 15th year with the Toreros. He is the Head Coach for Men's and Women's Cross Country and the Women's Track team.

Coach Guarino had an immediate impact in his first year of coaching at USD as he guided Tiffany Marley to capture the WCC Women's Cross Country crown, the only one in program history. He works diligently in bringing the Torero program to new heights. He added the women's track & field program as an NCAA sanctioned sport in 2008.

Under his guidance, female athletes have set school records in the Women's 800m, 1500m, 3km, 5km, and 10km. His male athletes also hold records in the 800m, 1500m, 3km, 8km and 10km. Academic excellence has gone far beyond athletic competition and into the classroom. USD has received the distinguished honor of being in the top ten percent of academic classes. It is a recognition award that the NCAA has given to the Women's Track & Field program consistently since 2011.

As an undergraduate at USD, Guarino was runner up at the 10,000m WCC Championship Cross Country meet and was named USD's Most Valuable runner. He received his bachelor's in Spanish and minored in Business from USD in 1988. He continues to champion education in sports and held a distance coaching clinic featuring legendary coaches Joe Vigil, Joe Newton and Dan Green at the University of San Diego.

Coach Guarino will treat you like one of his athletes for the four days of camp. He will guide you towards making your dream of running faster a reality. You will have the opportunity to ask many questions during the break out sessions and throughout the hikes after your running workouts.

Guarino lives in San Diego with his wife, Michelle, and their three children, Diego, Angelo, and Gabriella.
