Notable dates
March 8: The defending All-Filipino champions opened their season by hanging tough in the final 5.1 seconds to pull off a 111-109 victory over Swift. Alvin Patrimonio's lone free throw and Jerry Codiñera's block on Nelson Asaytono as the buzzer sounded save the Ice Cream Stars from a reversal after the Mighty Meaties threatened at 109-110 on rookie Boybits Victoria's three-pointer.

April 10: Coney Island subdued San Miguel Beermen, 97-95, for their sixth win in nine games in the All-Filipino Cup. The victory moved them up close to the leading Beermen, who fell to six wins and two losses which is the same slate of surprise team Sta.Lucia Realtors. [2]

Coney Island advances to the All-Filipino Cup finals for the seventh straight year after defeating Swift in a playoff game. They battled the San Miguel Beermen for the third consecutive time for All-Filipino supremacy. The Stars lost to the Beermen in six games.
