SHELBY - Jimmy Messer turned in a solid pitching effort and Cody Prestwood drove in three runs to lead South Caldwell past East Rutherford 4-0 Monday in a matchup of defending state champions.

The Spartans and Cavaliers were first-round opponents in the Shelby Savings Bank Easter Tournament in Shelby.

“This was a good test for our team against a good pitcher (East's Cullen Park),” said South coach Jeff Parham. “East Rutherford is always strong and well-coached. It will prepare us for the rest of the season.”

Up next for the Spartans (9-1 overall) is a 4 p.m. game Wednesday against Burns at the same location.
