Down 2-0 in the series, which is taking place in Langley, British Columbia, the Arrows were sitting in a must win position, and Shepley, who captained the Wallaceburg Red Devils this season, came up huge.
Shepley scored a pair of goals, one in the second period, and one in the third, and also added assists on a pair of Ian Martin goals.
Former Tilbury product Brandon Montour also scored a goal and added an assist in the victory.
The Arrows will face the Adanacs again tonight (Wednesday), and Thursday. The series now sits at 2-1 with Coquitlam holding the lead.
