The Sipat vanquished the 2000 Millennium Bugs, 71-65, while the 1999ers clobbered the 1996 Chubbies, 73-58.
The two winning squads finished the elimination round with the same 5-1 win-loss records but the Sipat grabbed the outright semis spot by virtue of their win over the 1999ers in the elimination round.

Meanwhile, four players scored in double figures for 1999 led by the 14 points and nine boards of Mark Capili and the 13 markers and nine rebounds of Joseph Bragat. Jess Minoza also had 13 while Tope Osorio chipped in 10.
