While the Georgia Southern baseball team has been going through a transitional period, having one of the youngest rosters in the Sun Belt over the past few seasons, one player in particular has been a leader since coming to Statesboro.
Junior outfielder Mason McWhorter has been a stronghold in the GS lineup, both offensively and defensively, ever since his arrival from West Forsyth High School in 2017.
After a freshman season spent in the outfield, McWhorter spent the 2018 season between outfield and first base because of injuries the team accrued, but had no issue playing at different positions.
