We just couldn’t get over this hump to get to the ‘ship (game) the last couple of years. Now, we’re there and want to finish the job.” Paulsboro checked into its first sectional championship game in four years with a 38-0 rout over Audubon in the Central Jersey Group 3 semifinal on Saturday at Glenn Howard Stadium.
