“I wanted to further myself as a person and to build more character,” Oset said of his time in the Army. “I wouldn’t change anything for the world.”
Oset said serving in the Army taught him that, “Life is bigger than one individual.”
He shared that lesson with his teammates at Seminole State College and his current teammates in the summer league and plans to take he message with him to New Orleans.
“Coming together as a unit is more important than an individual aspect,” Oset said.
He said that message means even more when it is said on America’s birthday.
