With all due respect to Stanford-bound forward Grant Verhoeven, who put up a 38-point, 23-rebound, 10-block performance last week, the biggest game of the week may have actually been the one turned in by Michigan State signee Matt Costello (Linwood, Mich./Bay City Western).
The 6-foot-9, 225-pound power forward, ranked ESPN's No. 87 recruit in 2012, erupted for 49 points, 20 rebounds, seven blocks and six assists in a double-overtime win last Friday.
That's the type of night that should have Spartans fans excited. Being a skilled big man with good size, Costello could be an immediate contributor for the Spartans next season.
