She joins KAA Gent forward Jonathan David, who was named top men's player on Wednesday in voting by Canadian media and coaches.
One of the first names on the Canadian team sheet, Lawrence is mobile and technically gifted.

"In 2019, her leadership abilities continued to develop both on and off the pitch, providing a positive impact on both her younger teammates as well as her own game."
In 2019, Lawrence led Canada with four assists at the senior level and was named Canada Soccer Player of the Month in both June and November. She was one of four footballers to play in all 15 matches and was Canada's player of the match in the round-of-16 loss to Sweden at the Women's World Cup in France.
