Division I coaches may look back and wish they had made a last-ditch effort to recruit Addie Laurence Addie Laurence 5'10" | Attack | Right Hand Manheim Township | 2026 PA , who will begin school at West Chester University in the fall and step away from lacrosse for the time being. Laurence is a high-level X attacker who controls the pace of the game.

She and Regan Taylor Regan Taylor Attack Manheim Township | 2026 PA have been a dynamic duo this season — if Taylor has an inch of space on her cut to the cage, you can guarantee Laurence will place the ball perfectly in her stick. She does not miss a cutter. But if the look is not there, she can create her own scoring opportunities as well. Her crease roll is strong, and she has the height to drop it over defenders and into the cage on the doorstep. She is tall, extremely athletic, and does a nice job as a quarterback for one of Pennsylvania’s best programs. Laurence knocked in four goals, tallied two assists, caused a turnover, and came up with a ground ball. She was the best player on the field on Saturday.

If she decides to walk on at West Chester at some point, there is a strong chance she cracks the roster. College coaches — if she becomes available at any point, do not make the same mistake twice.

It may take some convincing for Addie Laurence to consider playing collegiately, but any program that can land her is getting an elite diamond in the rough. There are a few times when a recruit like Laurence will be available this late in the process.

Through seven games for Manheim Township, Laurence has 15 goals on just 19 shots and six assists to go with it. She is currently third on the team in goals, only behind Lexie Kauffman Lexie Kauffman 5'5" | Midfield/Draw Specialist | Right Hand Manheim Township | 2026 PA (East Carolina commit) and Regan Taylor Regan Taylor Attack Manheim Township | 2026 PA (Colgate soccer commit).

For a team without the offensive production of North Carolina commit Liv Parmer, who tore her ACL in winter league play, Laurence has done an impressive job of stepping in and filling the void.

Laurence is an excellent off-ball attacker, consistently beating her defender and drawing help-side defense. If a defender does not slide over to cover, it is as simple as putting a pass up high for the 5’10” Laurence, usually leading to an easy goal.

For a player who remains unsure about playing at the next level, Laurence has proven she has the makings of a collegiate lacrosse player.
