What a long, strange, wild trip it has been for Dane DiLiegro, but one summed up simply in the words "Work Harder" which he has tattooed on his wrist. Unable to make the sixth, seventh and eighth grade teams in Lexington, Mass., and without a single college scholarship offer after graduating high school, DiLiegro would work his way to a Division I scholarship at the University of New Hampshire. At UNH, DiLiegro outworked everyone to become one of the greatest rebounders in school history before embarking on a nearly decade-long career at some of the highest levels of professional hoops. Now, for his second act (no pun intended), DiLiegro has worked his way into a bonafide actor, recently starring in the hit thriller Prey among many other credits. DiLiegro sat down on this episode of LIT to talk about his journey.
