Andrew Paul Wolfe[1] (born April 29, 1925)[2] is an American former basketball player for the University of California, Berkeley from 1945–46 to 1947–48. As a sophomore in 1945–46, Wolfe led the Golden Bears in scoring at 13.4 points per game en route to the school's first-ever appearance at the NCAA Tournament Final Four.[3][4] Cal lost to the eventual national champion, Oklahoma A&M, 52–35, however. During Wolfe's three-year California career he was named All-Pacific Coast Conference (PCC) every season as well as a consensus Second Team All-American as a senior.[3] Wolfe became the first Cal player to break the 1,000-point threshold, finishing his career with 1,112 points while breaking the former school career record of 725 by nearly 400 points.[3] His teams never finished lower than second place in the PCC South Division, winning it in 1946, and the school went 75–26 overall during that time.[4] Cal's home crowd fans were so notoriously rowdy during Wolfe's era that he was once asked by the game's officials to get on the public-address microphone and calm them down, otherwise Cal would have to forfeit.[5] Wolfe later said about the incident, "I didn't know if they'd listen to me or storm the court. Fortunately, they listened."[5]
