New Law Benches Athletes

As reported by the FairfaxTimes.com; The new law, known as the Student-Athlete Protection Act, would bench players until they receive medical clearance from a doctor or athletic trainer before returning to a game. "The fear about concussions is that if it's not properly managed...a student athlete will return to participation too soon and cause more serious damage," said Shane Caswell, director of the Sports Medicine Assessment, Research and Testing Laboratory at George Mason University.
