A meeting today between the president and the athletic director of Cal State Sacramento could go a long way toward determining whether Cal State Northridge will become a member of the proposed American Conference.

Bob Hiegert, Northridge athletic director, said Wednesday that if Sacramento decides to take part in a planning meeting in Marco Island, Fla., on Sunday, he also likely will attend.

After meeting with Northridge President James W. Cleary on Wednesday, Hiegert said, “I think (Cleary) is curious to see what Sacramento is going to do.”

United States International University, Southern Utah State, Northeastern Illinois and Chicago State reportedly are prepared to join the American Conference.

The addition of Northridge and Sacramento would give the conference six teams, the minimum required by the NCAA in Division I.
