JHY got off to a quick start and never looked back after opening up a 22-9 lead going into the second period.
The game was still within reach after JHY extended their cushion to 36-21 at halftime.
Amigos switched to man-to-man defence after the interval but it allowed Lim How to score at will off isolation plays.
JHY were also tight defensively inside the area to intercept several passes to score on the break.
