Logan Bye (born March 2, 1998) is an American ice dancer. With partner Chloe Lewis, he is the 2016 Youth Olympic silver medalist.
Logan Bye was born on March 2, 1998 in Colorado Springs, Colorado. He moved to Portland, Oregon in 2012, and then, two years later, to Michigan. He has a younger sister named Jessica. He is a student at Northville High School in Northville, Michigan.
Bye started learning to skate in 2001.
Bye and Chloe Lewis met in February 2010 at a rink in Sun Valley, Idaho and began training together in August 2010. Because they lived in different cities, they trained half a month together, half apart during their first two seasons. In the 2010–11 season, they qualified to compete on the intermediate level at the U.S. Junior Championships and finished sixth.
Lewis/Bye placed fourth on the novice level at the 2012 U.S. Championships. They began training together regularly after Bye moved to Beaverton, Oregon in autumn 2012. They won the novice title at the 2013 U.S. Championships.
During the 2013–14 season, Lewis/Bye were coached by Ikaika Young in Portland, Oregon; by Judy Blumberg in Sun Valley, Idaho; and by Igor Shpilband in Novi, Michigan. Making their ISU Junior Grand Prix (JGP) debut, they placed fifth in September 2013 in Mexico City, Mexico, and 11th the following month in Ostrava, Czech Republic. The two finished sixth on the junior level at the 2014 U.S. Championships.
