Miss Washington USA & Teen USA 2015 are crowned on Sunday afternoon with the pageant starting at 2pm local time.  This year there are 116 contestants across Teen and Miss, their largest pageant ever.  

The 76 Miss contestants is one more than last year and still impressive considering Washington’s numbers were in the 20-30 range between 2007-2013.  There are 40 Teen contestants, 11 more than last year and their highest number since 2007.

One fascinating thing with Washington is it is the only state that has yet to crown a former Teen titleholder and they very rarely crown winners that have past experience - in fact according to the records I have only three of their winners since 2000 had competed before: Amy Crawford in 2005, Michelle Font in 2008 & Cassandra Searles in 2013.  

This year there are three returning Miss runners-up: Maeloni Ogle, 1RU last year & 3RU in Teen in 2013, Evelyn Clark, 4RU in 2014 & 2013 and 3RU in Teen in 2009 and Demetra Coyer, 3RU in 2013.  Returning semi-finalists are Breanna Stewart (2013, 2014), Arianna Barrio (2012), Kelsey Schmidt (2014), and Stormy Keffeler (2014.

In Teen it is a very different story, with only two returning contestants out of 40!  The only past semi-finalist is Alena Smallwood (2014).
