Mobile athlete brings home two medals in her second national Special Olympics appearance

Katie Cobb of Mobile proved her bocce skills to the world once again last week when she brought home a gold medal in Team Bocce and a silver in Doubles Bocce.

Cobb’s attendance at the 2018 Seattle games was her second national Special Olympics appearance.

In 2014, she brought home a gold in the single bocce event.

This year, Cobb, 24, placed fifth in the event.

According to her official profile, when she isn’t playing bocce, Cobb likes to fish, play football, and visit Mobile’s Camp Smile.
