Wake Forest’s Lithuanian forward is now a coaching alum, not an active Deacon
Darius Songaila is not a current Wake Forest player in 2026; he’s a former Demon Deacons forward and longtime pro who later moved into coaching, so he’s a great fit only if you’re looking for basketball pedigree, not an active college roster piece. At Wake Forest, he was a durable four-year starter who produced like a steady two-way big, leading the 2001-02 team in scoring at 17.9 points per game and rebounding at 8.1 per game. His calling cards were toughness, consistency, and polished inside-out skill — the kind of veteran presence that coaches love and opponents hate dealing with.
