Triple-V won their first PBL title in only their second participated tournament in the import-flavored Challenge Cup, the Foodmasters defeated defending champion Crispa 400, 3 games to 1.

They repeated as back-to-back champions in the following year as they overcame a tough challenge by Sta. Lucia Realtors in winning the Philippine Cup title in a five-game series. They lost to the same Realtors in the championship via sweep in the following conference.

In the last offering of the 1992 PBL season called Invitational Cup, Triple-V drafted three players from the disbanded Crispa White Cement squad, they are Johnny Abarrientos, Felix Duhig and Freddie Abuda, and they took in Michael Mustre from A & W Hamburgers, which also sought a leave of absence from the league.
