Owner Profiles: Boston Benders - Samantha Waters

Suffolk Downs
Samantha Waters, of the Connecticut Waters, is a woman consumed by passion and drive to be the best. She struck out on her own right after college and moved to Boston where she financed the purchasing of a horse racing track, the Suffolk Downs. Rather than trading on her family name, she used shell companies to line up investors. 

Ms. Waters' drive to carve out her own path has often put her at odds with her blue blood upbringing. She is a fierce competitor who enjoys the thrill and challenge of striking out on her own and risking it all. 

When the chance came along to purchase a team in the Boston area, Ms. Waters wasted no time ensuring that she would be one of the new owners in the IHHL. She quickly sold her controlling interest in the Suffolk Downs to finance the purchase of the team and build a new modern arena.

Ms. Waters herself remains a woman of mystery. Few have met her face-to-face, as She prefers to operate through intermediates in order to keep her opponents off-balance and uncertain. This strategy has worked well, as Ms. Waters' team, The Boston Benders, have flourished in the fiercely competitive Dunlop Conference.
