Fort Fairfield High School has filled its vacant boys basketball and boys soccer coaching positions. Vaughn McLaughlin has been named to replace Logan McLaughlin (no relation) as the Tigers’ boys varsity basketball coach, according to Fort Fairfield athletic administrator Tim Watt, while Cody Tompkins is the new boys varsity soccer coach, replacing John Ala. Vaughn McLaughlin, the veteran band director and fine arts teacher at Caribou High School, has been a longtime volunteer assistant coach under Larry Gardner at Fort Fairfield, most recently with the girls’ basketball program but also when Gardner was with the boys program. He also has coached junior varsity boys basketball and eighth-grade girls basketball and is currently the varsity softball coach at Fort Fairfield High School. “Vaughn has been involved with coaching basketball for a long time and brings with him a wealth of knowledge,” said Watt in an email.
