A native of Boston, Lawson's jersey is currently on display at the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame in Knoxville, Tenn., for earning NJCAA All-American honors this past winter. The jersey was put on display during the ceremony for the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame Class of 2014, featuring: Lin Dunn, Michelle Edwards, Mimi Griffin, Yolanda Griffith, Jasmina Perazic and Charlotte West.
