Amateur career

[edit | edit source]

Pascual initially attended his high school education at St. Rose Catholic School in Paniqui, Tarlac until 2004, when his brother brought him to Manila and encouraged him to apply for a basketball scholarship with Philippine Christian University. On his own will, he personally came to PCU with the intent to join its seniors basketball team, as he was, at that time, a graduating high school student. Yet, he was advised by Bong Sales, then head coach of the PCU Baby Dolphins, to repeat his third year of high school to gain experience and be familiar with Manila basketball. Furthermore, he was then instructed to officially drop out from his fourth year high school studies in St. Rose Catholic School in Tarlac, and to bring with him his second year high school report card to officially enroll as a third year high school student at PCU. Mr. Sales facilitated his enrolment in PCU High School, enabling him to serve a one-year residency and play for a year with the Baby Dolphins.

In his only playing year at PCU, he was awarded both NCAA Juniors Rookie of the Year and Most Valuable Player of the NCAA Season 82, He made history as the first Juniors player to sweep MVP, Rookie of the Year, Mythical Five, and Most Defensive Player awards in a single season. [2]

After he graduated at PCU, he transferred to San Beda College where he was supposed to play out his rookie season for the Red Lions in 2008, but the NCAA Management Committee (ManCom) decided to ban him due to the same eligibility issue he was involved in two years before.[3] A week after, he was cleared to play for NCAA Season 84 by the league after an appeal by then-San Beda president Fr. Mateo De Jesus to the NCAA Policy Board, saying he did not knowingly violate league rules on misrepresentation.[4]

At San Beda, he became a member of multiple Red Lions championship teams of 2008, 2010, 2011 and 2012. He was also awarded as Most Improved Player in 2009.[5]

He was also a Gilas Cadet, and was invited to the Sinag Pilipinas national team pool that competed in the 2013 SEA Games.[6][7]
