Mauigoa was raised in American Samoa. He attended IMG Academy in Florida. He was one of the top players in the 2023 college football recruiting class, ranked No. 5 nationally by ESPN and No. 8 by 247Sports.[1][2]
In July 2022, Mauigoa, the top tackle prospect in the country, committed to the University of Miami. He also had offers from Florida, Alabama, Tennessee, Oregon, and USC.[3] Prior to the start of the 2023 season, he was selected by 247Sports as a true freshman preseason All-American.[4] Bruce Friedman of The Athletic described Mauigoa as "270 pounds of pure, lean muscle mass" and included him on the 2023 "Freak List".[5]
