Guerin played two seasons for Patty Gasso’s Sooners as one of the top-ranked pitching prospects in the nation. The 5-foot-8 left hander was the No. 25 overall recruit in the nation by Softball America and the No. 10 prospect according to FloSoftball and was ranked the No. 7 pitcher by Extra Innings Softball.

Guerin redshirted her freshman season in 2023. She appeared in nine games in 2024, recording a 2-0 record with a team-best 0.70 earned run average. She pitched 10 innings and logged nine strikeouts, while having a hand in three shutouts and holding opponents to a team-low .118 batting average.

Guerin was one of three Sooners who entered the NCAA Transfer Portal on June 10.
