11-2 Win Over Millburn Sends Shep Into the 800 Club

The Pirates bats came alive along with a top pitching performance to send Coach Mike Sheppard into the rarefied air of coaches with 800 career victories yesterday, with an 11-2 win over Millburn and avenging an 4-1 opening day loss to the Millers. Shep becomes only the third to join legends Kenny Frank of Toms River South and Marty Kenney of Christian Brothers Academy in New Jersey's exclusive club of coaches with 800 wins.  •  Big blows spurring the Prep's 11 runs were a Matt Monteleone grand slam and a solo shot by Chris Maldonado.
