Ulrich Noack

Ulrich Noack, who was not related to his teammate Rüdiger Noack, played for SG Dynamo Weißwasser from 1964-70, and helped them win East German national titles from 1964-65, and 1969-70. In 1966 he won a bronze medal at the Europeans, which the team received only in 1999. In total Noack earned 36 international caps.

In 1968 the only Olympic match between the two Germanys took place at Grenoble. The match was won by West Germany 4-2 in the final round in 17 February, resulting in a seventh place finish for West Germany and eighth for East Germany. As a result, in 1970 the East German government decided not to give further state support to ice hockey.
