The Carlow native, who is also representing Carlow IT at the Games, ran 20.55 as he finished behind gold medal winner Paulo Camilo of Brazil and silver medal winner Chederick van Wyk of South Africa.
Lawler ran a fantastic bend and then continued to fight all the way up the home straight to claim a fantastic third place.
Paulo Camilo (BRA) does it again! Yesterday's 100m winner secures gold over 200m. ♀♂ #Napoli2019 #ToBeUnique #Universiade @cbdu
