Thank you! This is just what I was looking for.

For anyone else who is interested, here are my code snippets:

Java class:
( import the log4j library jar into your project, find it in the <soapui_program_dir>/bin/ )

package soapui.sandbox;

public class LogTest {
    public static void HelloWorld(org.apache.log4j.Logger log) {

    }
}


Build and compile then place the jar file in <soapui_program_dir>/bin/ext/
Restart soapUI
Groovy Script within soapUI:

import soapui.sandbox.LogTest;

LogTest.HelloWorld(log);


Run the groovy script within soapUI and the following is output in the Log Output:
