for the 2010/2011 season, smith and her team of blisse comstock and teri lake asked colleen jones to replace their former skip jill mouzar, who had moved to ontario. days before the qualification round for the 2011 nova scotia scotties tournament of hearts began, jones fell ill to meningitis. the team made the decision to move smith to the skip position, and added danielle parsons to the team at third. they would win the provincial title and go on to the 2011 scotties tournament of hearts, where they finished with a 7-4 record. this was enough to secure a place in a tie breaker against kelly scott of british columbia. the nova scotian team won the tiebreaker and moved on to face ontario's rachel homan in the 3-4 game. they lost the game to homan, but met them again in the bronze medal game, after homan lost the semi-final. in the bronze medal game, smith and her team defeated homan and placed third overall at the tournament.
