actress and filmmaker in New York City, made him the subject of a 2004 award-winning documentary, Beneath The Surface, about his rise in the water polo world to compete in three Olympics. In December 1998, Wigo was in his father's backyard pool trying to win a bet with his 12-year-old younger twin brothers Drac and Janson that he couldn't swim 20 laps underwater. He blacked out from lack of oxygen because he hyperventilated before he got into the water. His father dived in, pulled him out, and performed CPR, saving his life. The Wigo twins played for Northeast High School in Oakland Park, Florida, reaching the Florida state championship game in 2004 and helping Northeast win the state title in 2005 and 2006. Both brothers signed national letters of intent to play water polo at Stanford in Fall 2006. After college, Wigo worked as an equity options trader at the Pacific Stock Exchange in San Francisco (1996–2000). For most of these four years he made trades for Cole Roesler Capital Management until 2:30pm, then went to either Stanford or across the bay to the University of California, Berkeley for his water polo workouts. Every Friday, he would head from the trading floor to the airport, fly south to train with the US National Team all weekend, and return home Sunday night. Wolf and his wife Barbara have a daughter, Athena, born during the 2004 Athens Olympic games. Wigo is the co-founder of KAP7 International, Inc., a water polo equipment company.
