Jason Guerriero is back home.
Not his Manorville, N.Y., hometown, mind you, although that's only a few hours away. Rather, his former collegiate residence of Northeastern University, where he starred for the Huskies for four seasons in the early 2000s and will now serve as an assistant coach to head coach Jerry Keefe.
“It was always a goal,” admitted Guerriero in mid-August of returning to his Boston-based alma mater. “When I was playing, I knew I wanted to coach. In time I made the transition, and I thought, ‘I’d love to go back to NU.’ ”
