We are very sorry for your loss. Our son, Alex, played with Jacob & the Bulls the year they won the championship. Alex ran into Jacob a few weeks ago and they had a nice conversation about that. Ironically we recently found the pictures from that great day. Our thoughts & prayers are with your family at this difficult time. ~ The Azary's

Sincere condolences to the family of Jacob Costa. We all cried & prayed after hearing about Jake. He was a great kid with an incredible sense of humor & infectious smile.
I'll always remember the good times coaching Shelton Biddy Basketball. Jake played for & Chris coached the Bulls. Jake was so excited about the Bulls winning the league championship.
We pray that God embraces Jacob & gives your family strength during this time.
