On their first pick, they drafted SG Kevin Hamilton from Holy Cross, later drafting Florentino Valencia(6), Edward Allen(6) and Javier Mojica (10. During the draft they also acquired Jesse Pellot Rosa, Miguel Gonzalez and Anthony Casiano. After trading Edward Allen for San German's 4th pick, David Vega, the team went on to win the regular season and the round robin.
