Moorestown Alum Fighting to Get Back on Football Field at Bryant University

Quinton Law missed his opportunity to play for the Moorestown High School football team during his senior year last year, and he’s still fighting to get back on the field.

Law’s now trying to get on the field in Smithfield, Rhode Island, home of the Bryant University Bulldogs, the Moorestown Sun reports.

Law lost his 2014 season when he twisted his right knee in the first quarter of the first game, against Winslow Township.

When colleges who had been recruiting him found out about the injury, the letters and the phone calls stopped, according to the report.

But Law kept fighting, using a continuous passive motion machine and an underwater treadmill to help his recovery along, according to the report.

Law told philly.com he called Bryant coach Marty Fine to tell him the news, but Fine wasn’t detered. He said Law made a commitment to the program and the program made a commitment to him.

Law was able to arrive at training camp on time.

He may redshirt this season and return next season with a full four years of eligibility, but he’d rather return to the field sooner. His goal is to make the away-team squad and maybe play special teams, according to the Moorestown Sun.

Bryant opened the season with a 27-3 win over American International on Sept. 5, according to the University’s website. The Bulldogs play at Brown on Saturday afternoon, 12:30 p.m.
