The J. Pechauer Northeast Women's Tour (JPNEWT) headed to Atlantic City Billiards in Egg Harbor Township, NJ on the weekend of May 17-18, 2012. Atlantic City Billiards is one of several new venues to JPNEWT this year.
Pam Cimarelli returned to JPNEWT to take the win. She started out the gate fired-up with victories over Briana Miller 7-1 and Meredith Lynch 7-1, consecutively. Pam ended day one sending Sharon O'Hanlon west after defeating her 7-2. Meanwhile, Linda Shea downed Ji-Hyun Park 7-3, Denise Reeve 7-4 and Judie Wilson 7-3.
Judie Wilson's first round bye shortened her number of matches played, but her skills shined through as she defeated Shanna Lewis 7-4, was put down by Shea 7-3, but picked things back up with a win over Lynch 7-4. Shanna Lewis defeated Kia Sidbury 7-2, was put down by Wilson, had two hill-hill victories over Pauline Mattes and Briana Miller, and finished day one with a win over Sharon O'Hanlon 7-4.
The final four met Sunday morning to continue the battle. Cimarelli sent Shea west after defeating her 7-4, putting Pam in the hot seat. Meanwhile, Lewis had a second chance to redeem herself against Wilson, but to no avail. Wilson eliminated Lewis 7-1. Judie met yet another rematch, but could not outdo Linda Shea's 7-2 victory. The finals met yet another rematch, Pam Cimarelli vs Linda Shea. Cimarelli maintained consistency and defeated Shea again 7-4 leaving Cimarelli undefeated.
