Borlongan was born in Cagayan de Oro.

[14] He would rack up 20 games, 4 goals, and 8 assists in his first full season with the club, after which they qualified for the 2023–24 edition of the AFC Cup. [15]
After playing matches for the Azkals' U13 and U15 teams, [6] [16] [17] [18] [19] Borlongan was called up for the Philippines' U19 squad for the 2015 AFF U-19 Youth Championship, [20] making his debut in the opening match, a 2–1 win over Brunei. [1] [21] He would go on to play in the 2016 edition of the same championship and the 2018 AFC U-19 Championship qualifiers the next year.
In 2017, he got his first call-up for the Philippines' U-23 team for the 2017 Southeast Asian Games in Cambodia, alongside some of his fellow UP teammates Christian Lapas and Marco Casambre. [22] He made his debut in the opening game, subbing on for Dylan de Bruycker in a 2–0 win over Cambodia.
