Columbia Basin College

Lettering in football, basketball, soccer, track and tennis, Tom Ramberg excelled as a five-sport star at Enumclaw High School. Heavily recruited as a football player, Ramberg took his talents to junior college powerhouse Columbia Basin College.

As a freshman in 1977, Ramberg was named team MVP while leading the nation in rushing yards and touchdowns. As a sophomore, he was again selected team MVP and helped lead the Hawks to the 1978 JC National Championship, the only national title for CBC in any sport.

At the end of his CBC career, Tom Ramberg held multiple single game, single season, and career records at Columbia Basin College: most rushing attempts, most yards rushing, most total plays, and most points scored. For his efforts, Ramberg was selected as a two-time All-NWAACC running back, as well as being named to the All-American teams in 1977 and 1978.
 

After an injury-plagued season at Washington State University, Ramberg transferred to Easter Washington University where he was reunited with former CBC football coaches Dick Zornes and Larry Hattemer. Tom Ramberg was inducted into the NWAACC Hall of Fame in 2012.
