He was an alumnus of Oshkosh Normal School (later renamed the University of Wisconsin–Oshkosh). He returned to the school as an instructor and coach in 1923. He was an athletic coach at the school for 45 years, leading the school to 29 conference championships in 10 sports. He was the football coach in 1929, from 1931 to 1942, and 1946 to 1962. He also served as the athletic director and coached basketball, tennis, track and field, and golf, among other sports.[1] He was part of the inaugural class inducted into the UW Oshkosh Athletic Hall of Fame in 1974.[2] The Kolf Sports Center at Oshkosh opened in 1971 and was named in his honor.[3]
