Summary

Open Conference: The high-scoring Larry McNeill return for the third straight season with Gilbey's, along with Dean Tolson, who was also back when he first played together with McNeill as imports for the La Tondeña ballclub in its maiden year in 1979. Gilbey's Gin beat Yco-Tanduay, 96-95, in their first game ushering the start of the league's seventh season on March 8. [1] The Gins landed seventh overall in the team standings, winning seven of their 18 games in the eliminations and failed to advance in the semifinal round.

Reinforced Filipino Conference: Known as St.George Whisky, the team signed up Kenny Tyler as their import. [2] Tyler played for the visiting Nicholas Stoodley squad from United States that won the Invitational championship last season. St.George won only once in the elimination phase against San Miguel Beer, 110-105 on September 19, and placed last in the conference.
