That's great!
Keep in mind that most rookies get decent gains for around the first 3 years of PL training, so the trick is truly to keep focused on long term and stay out of injury. Being patient, not pushing too hard too soon is sometimes the most difficult part. :) As your DL gains in strength, your bench may improve also fyi... :)
Do get the shoulder rehabbed, and be sure to ice and take care of yourself after your workouts. Realize that some things we do in our lives outside the gym also can influence our results in the gym - i.e. mileage on the shoulder may also build up from work or other sources...
I'm glad you found good coaching help and I found it really gave me the best start in the PL journey - I still am thankful for the help I got 16 years ago.
Stay strong and best of lifting luck, :)

Subject: [Supertraining] Re: power lifting program
Hi everybody,
Things have been going well in my effort to total 1000 pounds in my powerlifting program. I have finally gotten 300 pounds in my deadlift and 265 pounds in my squat. I haven't really tried to go heavy yet with the squat and the 265 went up pretty easy. The only thing missing is the bench. I have a bit of tendinitis in the shoulder and have managed to do 200 for the max. I have had a lot of fun with the program and experimented with different exercises and rep schemes. What I have learned is that I can go heavier faster, and that it doesn't seem to overwhelm me nearly as much as when I first started. Aside from the shoulder I haven't had an injury yet (knock on wood) and hopefully I can continue to gain week by week and month by month. Thanks to my guides, Kevin McKnight and Todd Craig I have kept motivated and on track throughout my trek.
And thanks to you all that have helped and supported me, I will keep updating when I can.
