A long-time coach around Seattle (above record not complete), Werner was the head coach of the Tacoma Mounaineers. Late in the 1947-48 season, in Tacoma's 30-point loss to Portland on March 13, 1948, Werner put himself into the game. I am pretty sure that was his only playing appearance that season.
Tom married Inga Fosberg (1913-1995) in 1936 and they had two sons and a daughter.

Tom Werner is my Grandfather. He and my Grandma Inga had 2 sons Bill and Bob Werner and a daughter Marilyn Werner. He was so fun and kind and humble. He was the best Grandpa ever!
