Many changes came along with the merger of Georgia State and Georgia Perimeter. A lot of new students, a couple of new campuses, and a bunch of student-athletes who didn’t have an athletic program to be a part of anymore. One of the biggest changes from the merger was that Perimeter’s athletic program would be no more, leaving many student athletes with tough decisions to make. Two of those student-athletes, Devin Vainer and Will Kilgore, joined Georgia State’s baseball team, and are both featured in prominent roles as the starting pitcher and starting second baseman respectively. Both in their second year at State and happy to have found success on their new team, they both admitted transition was not an easy one, in particular on the field.
