Default Propeller + Ground = Engine Damage?

My trainer (Avistar) came in on a few rough landings yesterday, and twice the engine turned off when the nylon propeller struck the soft soil under the grass of the field. The engine did start up just fine after the landings, but should I be checking the engine for any problems in the future (O.S. .40)? What does experience say here?
