Stefanie Lawton (b. June 20, 1980 as Stefanie Miller) is a Canadian curler from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. After an appearance at the 1997 Canadian Junior Championships, she would go on to win the 2000 Championships with the help of her team of sister Marliese Miller (third), Stacy Helm (second) and Amanda MacDonald (lead). At the worlds that year, she would win the silver medal behind Matilda Mattsson of Sweden. In 2001, Lawton (then known as Stefanie Miller) went on to be undefeated at the Junior championships, only to lose to Prince Edward Island's Suzanne Gaudet. Four years later, Lawton returned to the curling scene by becoming the Saskatchewan women's champion and therefore going to the 2005 Scott Tournament of Hearts. Her team of her sister Marliese, Sherri Singler and Chelsey Bell finished the round-robin in third place but lost to Ontario in the 3-4 playoff game.
The Lawton curling team changed its line up for the 2007-2008 curling season. With the departure of Chelsey Bell the team welcomed Lana Vey into the mix. Lana was the all star third at the 2007 STOH in Lethbridge as a member of the Jan Betker foursome. Lana played lead as team Lawton attempted to qualify for the Scotties Tournament of Hearts hosted in February 2008 in Regina. The Lawton team lost the provincial final to Michelle Englot. However, the team rebounded nicely and won the 2008 Canada Cup of Curling defeating Kelly Scott in the final.
