Smashey living her dream
Bill Knight
El Paso Times
She pursues the elusive dream, an endless summer of chasing that little yellow ball, an athletic dream- chasing quest.
Kaysie Smashey has come full circle this week, returning home to El Paso for the 10th annual Jaxon's Restaurant $10,000 USTA Women's Satellite tournament at Tennis West Sports and Racquet Club. The former Franklin High School and University of Texas star has circled the globe and found nearly every tennis court in the United States -- Australia, Canada, Mexico, Hawaii, Florida, Midland, Mich., Memphis, a swing through California, then over to the south, hitting Augusta, Ga., just before the Masters golf tournament, then storming through the rest of the south like Sherman ... Mississippi to Alabama to Louisiana to North Carolina.
And now home. And now El Paso.
