In camp, I tweaked my hammy, that set me back a little bit. We get to Maryland, my reps are limited. “Then we’re preparing for Merrimack and in practice I go to catch a ball, I catch it and the ball gets punched out and I break my finger. They told me I had to get surgery that Friday, but I told them the sport means too much to me. I tried to do everything I could to play with it broken. I scored my touchdown, helped the team any way I could, then I said it’s time to get the surgery.” The surgery was successful, but it was a complicated break, multiple fractures on the left pinky, affecting the knuckle, requiring three screws. He was fitted with a small cast but the doctors were concerned that with one hit it could fracture again, and more seriously, causing irreparable damage. So they did not clear Rosa for contact for several weeks. He had two carries against Wake Forest in October, his only touches since the surgery. “I get cleared finally,” he said, “we’re late in the season. I sit down with Coach (Jim) Mora, he gave me his thoughts. We decided it was best to redshirt the season, with the way things were going, that would be the best situation.” <- -> “That’s the plan,” he said. “I’ve waiting. Ever since Week 1, it hasn’t been normal for me. I’ve just been waiting. I’ve been hungry. … I can’t wait to get out there. If I get my opportunity, whenever that comes, I’m going to show everyone what they’ve been missing.” <- [/QUOTE]
