High school career

Lemieux played at West Valley High School as a tight end and offensive lineman.[1] He was ranked as the 36th best offensive tackle prospect, and received offers from over half of the Pac-12.[2] Lemieux committed to Oregon on May 3, 2014, choosing the Ducks over South Carolina and Boise State among others.[3]

College career

While Lemieux redshirted his freshman season, he did not miss a start between 2016 and 2019, starting 52 games over those four seasons.[4]

After his junior season, Lemieux and a group of teammates (including quarterback Justin Herbert) considered leaving for the NFL Draft, but collectively decided to stay.[5] Lemieux had also sought out an evaluation from the NFL's College Advisory Board and was advised to return to school.[6]

After his senior season, Lemieux was named a second-team All-American by both the Associated Press and Sporting News,[7] and was named first-team all-Pac-12.[8]
