COACH’S COMMENT
“… When he came here didn’t know anything about it, but it didn’t take us long to figure out that Brent Setser is a high character guy that has been raised the right way. His family did a great job and they should be proud. I’m honored to coach him he has been a great leader and an outstanding student as well. You can ask any teacher in the school about him and they will all tell you the same thing. Great young man that will do Tolsia proud. West Virginia State is getting a well rounded player.”
