How many injuries should I expect

I am a 3 stripe white belt and I love the sport and am getting better. Just won my first comp and things are good. However, I am 2/2 for on competition injuries. First competition tore my UCL 2nd competition tore my labrum. Not from submissions, first one from getting hip tossed and posting like an idiot. Labrum from just wizzering and shit popped randomly. Am I just getting unlucky, am I injury prone, should I quit doing competitions even though I love doing them too? Any advice or words of wisdom to make me feel better?
