    Smith played collegiately at Division I Seattle University (BA) and the University of Utah (MA). At Seattle University, she competed in 111 games, while holding the school record for strikeouts per seven innings (7.45), opponent batting average (.231), and highest number of strikeouts in a game (15). While competing at the University of Utah, Smith held opponents to a 2.52 batting average with 100 strikeouts in the season in 99 innings pitched. During her career, she was named Pitcher of the Week multiple times, as well as receiving offers to play professionally around the world.
