When Swift lost to Coney Island, 89-101, at the start of the semifinal round of the All-Filipino Cup on April 19, the players and coaching staff feel bad about the loss and vowed to shaved their heads if they lose again, the Swift players responded as the Mighty Meaties won five in a row to clinch a playoff for the finals berth. On May 6, the San Miguel Beermen ended their winning streak with a 97-87 victory. In their last semifinal outing against Coney Island on May 8, the Swift players and coaching staff showed up in bald-headed and scored a 92-84 victory over the Ice Cream Stars. The defending Commissioner's Cup champions bring back Ronnie Thompkins and he led Swift to four straight wins until he got suspended for two games in an incident involving him and Pepsi Mega's Rey Cuenco. Swift lost two of their first three games in the Commissioner's Cup semifinals with Thompkins being injured and was replaced following Swift's loss to San Miguel on August 9. Thompkins' replacement was Stan Rose, a 1993 CBA first round draft pick. Rose played only one game and scored 31 points in Swift's 105-103 win over Shell, he was sent home in favor of their former import Bernard Thompson.
