Huerta attended the University of Miami , where he was a walk-on kicker for the Hurricanes teams from 1988 to 1991.[4] During his four years as a starter, he led the Hurricanes in scoring.[4] He still holds the Hurricanes career records for points after touchdowns (PATs), field goals, and total points, as well as the top three season records for consecutive PATs in a season, the top four season records for field goals, and the top three season records for points scored kicking and field goals in a game.[4] As a senior in 1991, he was recognized as a consensus first-team All-American, having earned first-team honors from the Associated Press , the Walter Camp Football Foundation , Football News and The Sporting News .[4]

After the Las Vegas CFL franchise folded, he moved to the CFL's Baltimore Stallions , where he completed 57 field goals and scored 228 points, and was a key contributor to the Stallions' 1995 Grey Cup championship season.
