Andrew Wilcox earned four letters as a kicker on the Elon football team from 2005-08. Over his four seasons, Wilcox made a program-record 59 field goals and his 130 PATs were a program record and currently rank as the second-most ever by an Elon kicker. Wilcox also holds the program record with a 70.2 career field goal percentage. His 307 career points currently rank third in program history and are the most by a kicker. He twice made a program-best five field goals in a game and tied the Elon record with nine PATs made in a game. As a freshman Wilcox led the team with 51 points. Following a sophomore campaign in which he scored a team-best 65 points, Wilcox garnered first-team All-Southern Conference honors from the media and second-team recognition from the coaches. He was a second-team Football Gazette All-South Region player and a Football Gazette honorable mention All-American in 2006. The next year he earned national special teams player of the week distinction from The Sports Network, College Sporting News and Football Gazette. As a junior he went a perfect 50-for-50 on PATs, an Elon record for PATs made in a season, and added 14 field goals for 92 total points. After a senior campaign in which Wilcox made 22-of-27 field goals and 33 PATs for 99 points, he was named first-team All-SoCon by both the coaches and media. The Associated Press, College Sporting News and the Walter Camp Football Foundation named him a first-team All-American, while The Sports Network and CollegeSportsReport.com named him a second-team All-American. The 2008 team MVP led the FCS in field goals made per game (1.83) and scoring by kicking that season. During Wilcox's time with the program, Elon won six games against top-25 opponents, including a double-overtime win against Georgia Southern in which Wilcox booted a game-winning, 49-yard field goal. The team ended the 2008 season rated 17th in the nation and the 2007 campaign ranked 23rd. During the 2008 season, Elon peaked at an NCAA Division I program-record third place in the national polls.
