Aaron Pressley’s first goal for Stevenage inspired a 2-0 win over Shrewsbury as Sky Bet League One football returned to the Lamex.
The signing from Brentford struck just before the hour to open his Boro account, before substitute Jamie Reid ensured the result in the 87th minute.
The victory made it two wins from two for Steve Evans’ men as they commence their first third-tier campaign since 2013-14.
Inside the first minute, visiting keeper Marko Marosi’s scuffed clearance fell to Josh March, but the Scotsman’s volley whistled narrowly over.
New arrivals Finley Burns and Dan Butler also went close for the hosts, but Shrewsbury’s Taylor Perry forced West Ham loanee Krisztian Hegyi to tip over his long-range thunderbolt midway through the half.
Boro’s match-winner at Northampton, Carl Piergianni, headed onto the bar three minutes after the interval.
Ten minutes later, Pressley swivelled and swept home from a low Luther James-Wildin cross into the area.
And the win was sealed when Reid’s header snuck past Marosi at the back post.
