Tom played one season of football at LCC where he was an all-conference half back and defensive tackle.  Those honors led him to Washington State for three years where he was named All-Coast two of those seasons.  Following WSU, he was drafted by the San Francisco 49'ers, but played instead for the BC Lions in the Candian Football League. Following pro football, Gunnari went on to coach in Alameda County California where he became a legendary figure in the sports community of that area.
