I'm betting it all on Miss Florida - a Kappa Delta from my chapter!!

ETA: Thursday Night, Iowa won Lifestyle and Fitness; Georgia won Talent.

There are no more preliminary competitions, and Iowa is the only contestant this year to win both preliminaries.

There have previously been non-crowned double preliminary winners, including 1992's Miss Iowa (she became first runner-up) so have no fear, your favorite NPC Greek Miss America 2016 contestant may yet win!

Quite a few haven't been crowned. I read on one of the Voy pageant forums that the stats (from memory, sorry if they're off) for double-prelim winners are:
14 crowned Miss America
14 were in the top 5, but not MA
2 were in the top 10/15, but not top 5

The final night has a new panel of judges, so they could fall in love with a different girl!

Despite the fact she's not Greek, my money is on Miss SC, Daja Dial. #dollarsondial

She's done so well so far and Clemson is very proud to call her an alum! I do wish she'd gone Greek, but cheerleading is so time-consuming I'm amazed anyone manages to do both.

I'll try to follow. If the DH gets too bored, I'll probably start switching channels. That does not mean that the tiara comes off, however!

Did you see the video of Miss Colorado's talent? She came out in purple scrubs and gave a moving monologue about why she is an RN. Unique, and she's lovely.

I got a kick out of Miss Virginia being named Savannah. Cheap thrills, I guess.

Vanessa Williams got a great reception, and she can still sing and looks terrific.....not sure what she is wearing tho...

Some of those state introductions were cringe-inducingly hilarious! I wonder how much control the women got over what they got to say.

Miss West Virginia made Top 15!!! Go Brother Chelsea!!

Clemson girl, I agree!!! Your girl got in!

WOW! Talk about KD heavy!!

Two Kappa Deltas!

EditedTo say: THREE KDs!!
