Season in Review: 1990
In 1990, Purefoods came back from 0-2 to win the Third Conference and its first title against Alaska. Coach Baby Dalupan of the Hotdogs won his 15th Conference title. Purefoods were reinforced by former Ginebra import Darren Queenan and Rob Rose versus their counterparts in the Alaska camp, Sean Chambers and Carlos Clark. Then Purefoods Coach Baby Dalupan was able to pull off another rabbit in his hat, duplicating his feat back with Crispa back in 1975 when he won the last 3 games of the best of five series after being down 0-2 in the first 2 games. The Hotdogs played minus import Robert Paul rose midway in the third quarter after the reed thin American sustained a right leg injury early in the first quarter. But the Airmen also lost the services of center Dong Polistico who was thrown out for throwing a bolo punch on a driving Darryl Queenan in the third quarter. Alvin Patrimonio was SCOOP’s unanimous pick as most outstanding Player of the title play offs. Most outstanding import was Darren Queenan.
