ENERGY FOR ULM FROM NUMBER 13 KONRAD WYSOCKI! Interestingly enough, the intelligent Wysocki understands building for the future on and off the floor.

The Princeton Graduate joined a Florida-based Architecture firm and received his "Green Card" from the US government allowing him to take the job as an architect when his basketball career is complete. But before Konrad goes full time in building, he wants to spend the next two years helping to build his basketball career and the ratiopharm Ulm team. Wysocki will work part-time during the summer for his future firm while he finishes fastbreaks with exciting slam dunks for his current Bundesliga team. After completing his career at Princeton, Konrad came back to Germany in 2004-2005 where he played 18 games for BG Gottingen in the 2.Bundesliga North where he averaged 11.5ppg and 6.3reb. The next season of 2005-2006, Wysocki moved south to former Ulm rival Erdgas Baskets Ehingen where he played the first 11 games of the season scoring 16.3ppg with 10.1reb and shot 56% from the floor. Mid-season, Konrad operated an out clause in his contract and moved to ratiopharm Ulm where he was a major contributor to the teams "Aufstieg" and championship season. In 16 games with Ulm, Konrad contributed 10.9ppg and 5.7reb and came up with key performances including a memorable 25 point effort in Ulm's outstanding 105-95 overtime win in Bayreuth. Not only has Konrad been a big part of Ulm's success on the court, but the athletic 6'8 forward has been a huge hit in Ulm's off floor work with special appearances in schools and working with kids. Konrad has also coached an Ulm youth basketball team bringing happiness to many youngsters in the area. Konrad Wysocki has been outstanding for Ulm on and off the floor. From the Giessen area of Germany, Konrad's father was an excellent professional player in the Bundesliga and basketball is a family tradition for the Wysocki's.
