Dylan Vaughn

Dylan Vaughn Profile Photo

Dylan Vaughn is a lifelong athlete and fierce competitor who refuses to be defined by other people’s assumptions. Born with cerebral palsy and the surviving member of a set of triplets, Dylan underwent major surgery as a child and was told he might never walk again. He went on to become a college baseball pitcher known for his control, focus, and competitive spirit before bringing that same mentality to pickleball. Positive and humble away from competition but fearless once the ball is served, Dylan treats his disability as a superpower and loves proving that the game reveals the player. He is also proudly undefeated against Sam with a perfect 4–0 record.
