By Medicine Hat News on May 31, 2019.

Redcliff’s Sarah Mickey earned a gold and a silver medal at a track and field competition in Arizona this past weekend.

Mickey, 20, won the F55 discus at the Desert Challenge in Tempe, Ariz. with a throw of 19.76 metre. She was second in F56 javelin with a 12.70 metre throw.

Paralyzed in high school due to the effects of Lyme disease, Mickey played sledge hockey for a while but has found even more success in track and field. She won her division in discus at a meet in Italy this past October.
