Born in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, LaMontagne grew up in nearby Coopersburg and graduated from Southern Lehigh High School in Center Valley in 1995. At the University of Virginia, after redshirting one season, LaMontagne played at left guard for the Virginia Cavaliers from 1996 to 1999. He was a three-time first-team All-Atlantic Coast Conference honoree from 1997 to 1999.[1]

LaMontagne appeared in two games in 2000.[2] Due to knee surgery, he was on injured reserve for much of that season. After twisting his knee during a minicamp in March 2001, LaMontagne had two more surgeries.[3] The Browns released LaMontagne on July 20, 2001, days before training camp was to begin.[4]

In the fall of 2001, LaMontagne returned to Southern Lehigh, as a volunteer assistant coach.[3] He retired from football and became a sports agent.[5]
