Vaughn pitched for UC Davis for four years, appearing in 37 games. He was honorable mention all-conference in his senior season, winning his final three starts as an Aggie.[1]

Coaching career

UC Davis hired Vaughn as a pitching coach for the first season after his graduation. He worked with a pair of Division II College World Series teams in 1995 and 2003, and assisted in the first Aggie team to reach the Division I NCAA Tournament in 2008. He has coached 36 players who have signed professional contracts and fifteen of his pitchers drafted in the Major League Baseball Draft. After being passed over in favor of Rex Peters for the open head coaching position in 2002, Vaughn nearly left the school, but elected instead to remain.[2] He was elevated to the head coaching position in August 2011.[1][3][4]
