Jacobs: Batavia’s Vaughn grows with resurgent Roosevelt
Building a strong basketball tradition is not an easy task. You don’t become Kentucky or Duke or even Oklahoma City University overnight.
Oklahoma City, in case you’re wondering, has won the NAIA Division I men’s basketball championship a record six times. It’s that sort of a championship tradition that Elliott Vaughn of Batavia hopes to help build at Roosevelt University.
Vaughn is a 6-foot-6 sophomore forward for Roosevelt, which revived its athletic program as an NAIA member in 2010 after a 21-year absence.
