Hide AdEagley came back into the game though and were level midway through the opening half, the ball crossed from the right wing to Stevenson who beat Dan Curwen in the Garstang goal with a smart volley.
The visitors weren’t playing like a side bottom of the table, Curwen twice denying Stevenson before Coar had a goal ruled out for a marginal offside decision as the sides went in level at the break.
The decisive breakthrough came on 58 minutes, the impressive Andrew Murphy sending a cross onto the head Coar who didn’t have to break his stride to calmly head home at the far post to give Garstang the lead for a second time.
Both sides had their chances in the closing stages but Coar’s brace was enough to settle things.
This Saturday Baker takes his side to face mid-table Coppull United.
