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!

Since their states usually do well in this pageant, I guess this year's top two will be Miss Oklahoma and Miss New York.
But upon finally locating and viewing each contestant's one minute youtube video, I like Miss Delaware...she's quite a sweetheart, speaks clearly, and her state has never won Miss America.

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.

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.

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