Masse-Pelletier is a 6’2″, 225lbs linebacker out of Woodberry Forest in Virginia, and originally hails from Quebec where he played for CFC50 No. 3 Seminaire-Saint-Francois, helping the Blizzard claim back-to-back Bol d’Or titles before foregoing his CEPEP career. Masse-Pelletier was named First Team CFC All-Canadian as a defensive back in 2017, and earned similar honours with an RSEQ All-Star nod after racking up 59.5 tackles and one sack. Once he arrived in Virginia, the accolades continues to roll in earning First Team All Central Virginia and First Team All-State.

The Minutemen staff weren’t shy about showing their interest early in the process, and Masse-Pelletier says UMass felt like the right place to continue his football career,

“UMass was one of the first school to offer me a scholarship and the first FBS program to do so. They’ve been awesome and constant recruiting me during the entire process. I visited the school twice with my mother and grandmother and it felt like home from the start. I love the coaching staff present at UMass and I know they are building something special with the 2020 recruiting class and I want to be a part of that.”

UMass have been one of the most active programs north of the border with multiple offers already on the board, plus they’re home to CFC60 Quebec natives Samuel Emilus and Tyris Lebeau.
