"The 6' 4", 310-pound offensive lineman graduated from Northern Michigan University in 2011. DuMont started at left guard for three seasons for the Wildcats, serving as the team captain and earning all-Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference honors in his senior season.
"DuMont was a late switch to the offensive line. He played quarterback all through his years in Racine Youth Sports football and through his sophomore season at St. Cat's. He switched to being a lineman, both on offense and defense, in his junior season. In addition, DuMont was the Angels punter.
"He was a first-team All-Racine County and All-Lakeshore Conference selection on the offensive line. He also earned All-Lakeshore Conference first-team honors as a punter and was an honorable mention selection on the defensive line.
"'Jason has great mobility for a big man,' said Raiders head coach Gino Perfetto. 'He's extremely versatile which will allow us to feature him in key situations.'
"DuMont made visits to several colleges and universities before choosing Northern Michigan, including Minnesota State-Mankato, Winona State and St. Norbert's. Northern Michigan was so impressed with DuMont that the NCAA Division II school actually offered him a partial scholarship on his visit.
"DuMont and his parents, Danny and Gerianne, have deep roots in the Racine community. The DuMont's recently opened Dewey's Restaurant and Sports Bar in downtown Racine."
