Logan has long been respected in the Riverbend tennis community, as has his family. His mother, Theresa, and both of his brothers, Patrick and Robert, played tennis for Lewis and Clark, as did his aunts and uncles.

“I guess you could say we are a Lewis and Clark tennis family,” said Logan. “It is great to be back at the college and coaching a group of talented players.”

Logan already has been working with the team preparing for fall scrimmages.

“It is great to have Chris back at Lewis and Clark as head men’s coach. He undoubtedly will help carry on the rich Trailblazers tennis tradition,” said Doug Stotler, L&C Athletic director. “He has coached and played tennis for several years and will be an asset to the team.”
