O O o u o o o O O o o o o o o o o o o o o Soccer team successful despite small crowds by ROGER RIFE Associate Sports Editor Soccer, the number one sport in the world, is nothing more than a minor sport at the University of Nebraska. The attendance at the Cornhusker soccer team's games has been extremely small. At the Nebraska-Iowa State soccer game last Sunday, there were only 10 spectators. "That crowd of 10 spectators was the largest crowd that we've had this year." said Eric Davies, faculty advisor for the soccer team. "We usually get about five or six spectators per game." Davies, who has played soc cer in Holland. Nova Scotia and London said, "In other coun tries, the top sport is soccer, not American football. Over 140 countries have soccer teams." Davies believes that there are a number of reasons for soccer being the number one sport in other countries. "Sports in America are limited to the unusually large," ex plained Davies. The difference b et ween American football and soccer does not end with size though. "Soccer is more emotional game than football," Davies said. "And unlike football, you can't plan plays in soccer. Every move that is made depends on the skill of the players." "On a football team, the coach and quarterback are the most important people but on a soccer team, all 11 players are important because one bad player can mess-up the whole team," he continued. Despite the lack of fans, the Nebraska soccer team has been successful in bringing together students from foreign countries as well as from America. On the soccer team there are two Englishmen, five Colombians, a Costa Rican, a Jamacan, four Turks, an Austrian, a German, an African, and 10 or 12 Americans. The Husker kicking crew will compete Saturday against JFK College in Wahoo at 10 a.m. On Sunday ttie soccer team will play Pershing college at 2 p.m. on the football practice field west of the Coliseum.
