CJ Costabile Inducted into Connecticut Lacrosse Hall of Fame
CJ Costabile, NF graduate of the class of 2008, was the first New Fairfield lacrosse player to be inducted into the Connecticut Lacrosse Hall of Fame in an induction ceremony on January 24, 2025. CJ joins Varsity Boys Coach Marty Morgan (inducted in 2019) and lacrosse official Ralph Baldelli (inducted in 2025) as three members of the extended New Fairfield Lacrosse community who have been inducted into the Connecticut Lacrosse Hall of Fame.
CJ has built a remarkable career in the sport. Over a 13 year professional outdoor lacrosse career, he is currently a member of the New York Atlas and has played for the Carolina Chaos, Chesapeake Bayhawks and the Long Island Lizards. Costabile also played indoor, in the National Lacrosse League, with a two-year stint with the Philadelphia Wings.
A 2x PLL All-Star (2019, 2022) and 2nd Team All-Pro (2022), Costabile’s professional accolades include a 2021 PLL Championship with Chaos, a 2019 MLL Championship with the Bayhawks and recognition as the 2020 MLL Signature LSM of the Year. Costabile’s professional journey began as a 5th overall draft pick in the 2012 MLL Entry Draft and the 39th pick in the 2012 NLL Entry Draft.
Internationally, his contributions to Team USA earned him a 2015 World Indoor Lacrosse Championship Bronze Medal and a 2008 World Lacrosse Men’s U20 Championship Gold Medal.
For his collegiate career at Duke University, he earned 4x All-American honors (1st, 3rd, 3rd, Honorable Mention), 4 NCAA Final Four appearances, 3x All-ACC Tournament Team (2012, 2011 & 2009), 3x All-ACC Academic Team (2012, 2011 and 2010), 3x ACC Honor Selection (2012, 2011 and 2010), 2x All-ACC Selection (2012 & 2011), 2x NCAA All-Tournament Team (2012 & 2010), 2x ACC Champion (2012 & 2009) and 2009 ACC Tournament Most Valuable Player honors. In 2010, he delivered one of the most iconic moments in NCAA lacrosse history, scoring the game-winning goal five seconds into overtime to secure Duke’s first National Championship against Notre Dame.
In 2012, Costabile’s senior year achievements included winning the Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award, being a Tewaaraton Trophy Finalist and receiving the Lt. j.g. Donald MacLaughlin Jr. Award as the nation’s top midfielder. He was also named ACC Co-Defensive Player of the Year, ACC Scholar Athlete of the Year and USILA Scholar All-American underscoring his excellence on and off the field.
Costabile’s lacrosse journey began in New Fairfield, CT. At New Fairfield High School, he captained the 2008 Class S Connecticut State Championship team to a 23 – 0 record. A 4X 1st Team All-SWC selection and 3x CT All-State (2008, 2007 and 2006), he was named 2008 High School All-American and CT Player of the Year and was selected to the Under Armour All-America Team.
Off the field, CJ is the son of Steve and Doreen Costabile, has one brother, Nick, and married Rowena Karmy in October 2024.

Playing Time
The New Fairfield Youth Lacrosse program believes that all youth lacrosse players need ample playing time during both practices and games to develop in a sport and to get the most enjoyment out of the game.
Attendance + Effort + Attitude + Respect = Playing Time
Players who attend practice, try hard and follow the Code of Conduct will receive ample playing time. Players who do not attend every practice, do not show up on time, do not try their hardest and do not show respect for coaches, officials, opponents and teammates will not get as much playing time as their teammates. Please discuss this policy with your child.
