Logan Maile Lei Tom (born May 25, 1981 in Napa, California) is an Olympic indoor volleyball and professional beach volleyball player.
She is the daughter of former NFL Football player Melvyn Tom. Though she grew up with her mom and brother in Salt Lake City, Utah, she spent her summers with her dad in Hawaii learning how to surf. In 2000, she became the youngest woman to ever be selected for the USA Olympic volleyball team. She was just 19 years old at the time. Logan Tom was a student athlete at Stanford University, where she majored in international relations and helped the Cardinal win an NCAA national title in 2001. She was named the AVCA "Player of The Year" in 2001 and 2002. In 2004, the 6' 1" (186 cm) Tom posed in a bikini for an FHM magazine article on female Olympic athletes. She was ranked #91 on the FHM 100 Sexiest Women of 2005.[1]
