‘I feel I’ve got better but I still need to work on my positional play.’
Harrison Heath was third.
Pearce was pipped for the honours in the top round-robin group in the last week by Tyler Rodgers on the head-to-head rule.
Rodgers needed to beat Hiscock in a final high-pressure frame, with an audience, to take maximum points and leapfrog Archie Crump into fourth place.
Seven-year-old Jake Daffin topped the second group and retained his Division 2 title. Keira Jackson was second, ahead of George Barber.
