Just one bit to add..his name is Kirsten Zoellner..and from this article ( http://www.deutsche-bank-skyliners.de/8711.html ), I believe he retired, due to injury, this year.

I couldn't resist throwing that article into Google translator. It makes for an odd read, but the point comes across:

 

Kirsten Zöllner - a lifetime Skybembel

(Friday, March 13, 2009 by Anke Stakemann)

 

Kirsten Zöllner that due to his injury no longer competitive practice, it is very unfortunate and makes us all sad. In the team GERMAN BANK SKYLINER missing us very much.

 

But from the family of GERMAN BANK skyline is why he does not imagine, and certainly not from the memory of the fans!

 

Many beautiful memories and experiences together with Kirsten left us, especially the funny Christmas Stroll in December last year, but also the many games in which he shared with us fans in the stands stood and supported us.

 

For this reason he got from us at home against Ulm presents a certificate and thus became the member of our club Skybembels appointed for life.

 

Of course we also endowed with the right Bembel outfit, which he immediately attracted enthusiastic. We are very pleased Kirsten with us, and that I hope continues for many beautiful moments shared around the basketball!

 

More on this and other topics in the current issue of "Tip-Off magazine."

You are missing at least one active player.

 

Michael Konstanty 37 | 1B Dayton Dragons, Cincinnati affililiate

 

Mike was the 6th Albany player drafted by MLB

Other UAlbany baseball players are :

I believe Konstanty and Gugel are the only ones active in the minors this season.
