Early life and career
Eduardo Daquioag was born in Dingras, Ilocos Norte to a carpenter and housewife. He was scouted by UST Growling Tigers head coach, Pido Jarencio during his third year in high school while he was playing for the Ilocos Norte College of Arts and Trades at the Ilocos Regional Athletic Association. Jarencio was originally scouting Jeoff Javillonar but later was convinced to recruit Daquioag too along with Javillonar when they both finish high school.[1]
High school career
UST assistant coach Beaujing Acot, brought Daquioag and Javillonar to the Benedictine International School where Acot was head coach of the school's basketball team. Daquioag won various titles with Benedictine International School including the 2008 National Students Basketball Championship in Cebu where he was named among the Mythical Five. When the school's basketball program was dissolved in 2009, Daquioag moved to Rizal Technological University where he played under the institution's junior team which was now headed by Acot.[1]
College career
Eric Altamirano convinced Daquioag to study at the National University where the mentor was then newly appointed as the school's basketball head coach. Daquioag was unable to secure a slot at the NU Bulldogs and tried out to play for the UST Growling Tigers instead.[1]
He made his debut for UST at the UAAP against the University of the East where his performance was well received. However his performance on the following games were lackluster and was benched in the following games. In his second year he was diagnosed with rheumatic fever, a potentially fatal disease and was forced to play limited minutes with the UST Growling Tigers on his second year. He returned to the team on his third year as a rotation player, and on his fourth year was named as a candidate for the MVP honor.[1]
