"Certainly, the conference is alvays open to looking at new and lifferent sports should the indivi lual institutions decide to sponsor hose sports," Kramer said. Johnson said most teams in the >EC do not have soccer because it s not a sanctioned conference port. But the SEC's position is hat there is no point in making it a inference sport until all the chools have a team. "It's kind of a cyclical thing .... t's going to have to be dealt with >n an individual school basis," ohnson said. "Certainly, I'm interested in promoting it at other chools." The ACC and other large conerences have obviously seen the mportance of soccer as a conference sport and put money into heir programs, Johnson said. "Unfortunately for us, the SEC s about the last bastion of conservatism in terms of other sports," he aid. Both Berson and Johnson exjressed an interest in meeting on he field in a possible match-up of he two SEC teams. Berson said the two have not set inything, up but it would be "no >roblem to do so." "I already told Mark we'd be jlad to get together with him once i year and let him kick our tails.
