She placed 21st in the 200m breast at Junior Nationals this summer and won four events at the Hawaii LCM Championships. She took 18th in the 100 breast and 21st in the 200 breast at Juniors West last winter.<\/p>\n<p>Lawson also competes for Hawaii Preparatory Academy where she is a school record holder and six-time Hawaii State Championship finalist.\u00a0She won the 100 breast and was the 200 IM runner-up during her junior season.
