In 1992, Daligcon graduated from Highline High School. He attended Seattle Pacific University, playing on the men's soccer team from 1992 to 1995.

He was a 1994 Second Team and a 1995 First Team Division II All American.[1][2] He graduated in 1996 with a bachelor's degree in marketing.

Professional

On March 4, 1996, the Tampa Bay Mutiny selected Daligcon in the third round (twenty-fourth overall) of the 1996 MLS College Draft. The Mutiny released him late in the pre-season. He then signed with the Seattle Sounders of the A-League.[3] That season, he played in the A-League championship game as the Sounders defeated the Rochester Rhinos.

Dalgicon won three league and one Open Cup championship with the Rhinos. In 2003, he returned to the Sounders for a final season before retiring.
