Miss Ohio Teen USA

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Chelsie Folden, Miss Ohio Teen USA 2008

The Miss Ohio Teen USA competition is the pageant that selects the representative for the state of Ohio in the Miss Teen USA pageant.

Ohio is one of the least successful states at Miss Teen USA, and has only placed twice. Most importantly, Allie LaForce won the Miss Teen USA crown in 2005, Ohio's first placement since 1993. The state has won one special award, Miss Congeniality in 1997. Ohio was one of the last ten states to make their first placement.

Only two Miss Ohio Teen USA titleholders have won the Miss Ohio USA title and competed at Miss USA. The most recent of these is Stacy Offenberger, who placed third runner-up in the Miss USA 2006 pageant.
