As one of the inaugural members of the first Southeastern Massachusetts University football team to play at the NCAA Division III ranks, Duchemin’s collegiate career as a four-year starter received recognition on the conference and national levels. The three-year captain led the Corsairs in tackles for three seasons and was named to the All-New England Football Conference defensive teams in all four years. In his sophomore year, the defensive end was named the top defensive player in the NEFC. Duchemin ranks second all-time in the program’s history for sacks in a single season, taking down opposing quarterbacks a total of 13.5 times during the 1988 campaign.
