Beneteau is now a Warrior

Updated: Sep 16, 2021

Villanova grad Samantha Beneteau is getting set to make her debut at home with the Waterloo fast pitch team Sunday. The Warriors open their OIWFA schedule at Hillside Park against Laurier.

A date she has circled on her calendar is October 2nd when the Windsor Lancers visit Waterloo.


The shortstop got serious about the game at the age of 13 when she started playing in Michigan. "Opened up my eyes to more opportunities and high school not being the end for me" said the 18-year old.

Beneteau was playing for a team from South Bend, Indiana called Intensity Midwest. When the pandemic hit she rejoined LaSalle Athletics and the University of Windsor softball staff in order to stay connected to the game.

This is why...

Powerplay Sports was born while on a trip to Italy in the summer of 2018. Walking through a charming pedestrian underpass reminded me of being in the tunnel at the University of Michigan in the early part of my career. That feeling led to thoughts of Windsor Lancers football camp opening in three weeks and all of the fall sports that weren't going to be covered because of cuts to local sports coverage by legacy media. 

With the support of a loving wife and family, I decided to create Powerplay Sports as a passion project.  

I've come across some great people who have helped capture the essence of our community throughout the years like Tony Techko, Tony Doucette, Scott Scantlebury, Dom Papa, Steve Bell, Will Hill, Jim Parker and Mary Caton to name a few. 

Please spread the word and follow along here or on social media so we can continue having the priviledge of highlighting our athletes, our community.
