Boston College Men's Basketball Sends Offer to 2026 Forward from Medford
In this story:
The Boston College men’s basketball program sent an official offer letter to 6-foot-10, The Newman School (Boston, Mass.) product Quinn Costello late on Thursday night, Costello posted on his personal X account.
“Excited to announce I have received a Division 1 offer from Boston College!” Costello said. “I’m grateful to Coach Grant, Coach Abrams, Coach Smith, and the rest of the staff for this opportunity. Go Eagles!”
In the past 24 hours, Costello announced on X that he additionally received offers from Syracuse, Michigan State, Providence, Texas, Michigan, and Purdue.
The series of offers came after a 21-point performance on Thursday at the NBPA Top 100 Camp. Over the course of four games played at the camp, Costello went 13-for-27 from 3-point range and recorded an alley-oop, game-deciding basket in Team Thomas’ final win of the camp.
This alley-oop finish from 2026 F Quinn Costello ends up being the game-deciding basket in another win for Team Thomas at NBPA Top 100.
