Costello is the sixth San Clemente quarterback to commit to a NCAA Division 1 school in the last 10 years.
Costello can’t sign with the Cowboys until the early signing period after the football season in December or on National Signing Day in February. He also had offers from Eastern Washington University, Army-West Point, Brown University, UC Davis and the Air Force Academy.
After transferring from Santa Margarita Catholic High School via Mission Viejo High School, Costello joined San Clemente last season as a junior and had a breakout performance.
Costello completed 64 percent of his passes for 2,132 yards and 23 touchdowns. Costello also ran for 392 yards and five touchdowns on 99 carries as he led the Tritons to a 9-2 record and the CIF-SS Division 1 playoffs.

In the wheelchair F33 shot put, Stier put up her best mark on her sixth and final attempt with a throw of 10 feet, eight inches.
