After leading Ward Melville's soccer team to back to back New York State championships senior defender Maddie Costello has decided on her next step.

Costello has chosen to continue her academic and playing career at Clemson University. The 10th ranked defender in the nation was also an excellent influence to her teammates as a multi year captain.

Ward Melville's run of dominance has been nothing short of brilliant as they have now won three Long Island Championships in a row after finishing the season undefeated once again.

Clemson's head coach Eddie Radwanski said “This recruiting class ranks up there as one of our best recruiting classes. It is a diverse group of talented players who are not only very good, talented soccer players but very good people. They competed at the highest levels of youth soccer and several have valuable US Youth National Team experience. We are excited to welcome them to the Clemson Family!”

According to Top Drawer Soccer, the 2025 Clemson recruiting class is ranked No. 2 in the nation as they have four players in the Top 50 and eight players in the Top 200.

Costello said “I chose Clemson because the campus feels like home to me. The coaches, staff, players, and environment are all so welcoming. The academics are amazing and the soccer program and facilities are unmatched.”
