Dan began competitive weight lifting after he left the college, competing six years in California and the past two years in, St. Louis, where he's administrative assistant at The Jewish Hospital of St. Louis. In February he walked away with first place honors in the light heavyweight class of the Ozark AAU Weight Lifting Championships, held in St. Louis.
