==Early life and college==
Born in Suva, Fiji to parents Paul and Olive, Whippy was the third eldest of six children. Despite growing up in a rugby dominated country, Whippy started playing basketball at a young age due to family influence – both his parents played and coached basketball at some level in Fiji. He quickly learned the skills and tactics of the game, and at the age of 14, he represented Fiji with the national basketball team.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Biography – MARQUES WHIPPY 's Arena )〕 With the national team, he won gold medals at the 2002 Oceania Youth Tournament in Tonga and the 2007 South Pacific Games in Samoa.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Career History – MARQUES WHIPPY 's Arena )〕
Whippy attended LDS Church College in Tamavua, Suva before moving to the United States in 2003 to finish his senior year at Woods Cross High School in Woods Cross, Utah.〔 There, he played 4A state basketball and competed against fellow Fijian Tai Wesley.
After serving a two-year Mormon mission with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Whippy joined the BYU–Hawaii Seasiders men's basketball team for the 2007–08 season. His size and physical abilities became an instrument for the Seasiders. During his junior year in 2009–10, he was awarded first team all-conference and led his team to the Division II National Championship held in Springfield, Massachusetts.〔 He improved further as a senior in 2010–11 as he earned the Pacific West Player of the Year award and finished his four-year career at BYU–Hawaii with a school-record of 245 steals. In 31 games (30 starts) as a senior, he averaged 14.2 points, 11.5 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 2.8 steals, 1.3 blocks in 31.2 minutes per game.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=2010-11 PacWest Men's Basketball )〕
