Adrianna is just the second returning Maryland runner-up to win in the past eight years (the other is her predecessor Christina Denny). Taylor is the third consecutive returning contestant to win the Teen title.
Among the semi-finalists was last year's fourth runner-up Chelsea Boone and 2014 Pennsylvania semi-finalist Gretchen Schoeck. Chelsea won her second consecutive Photogenic award. The rest of the top 16 were newcomers.
The Teen competition had very few returning contestants this year. There were only three returning semi-finalists from last year (no runners-up) and all three made the top fifteen again this time. In addition to winner Taylor Spruill, second runner-up Louise Daniel and semi-finalist Megan Goins were the only returning contestants in the top fifteen.
The runners-up were in order, first runner-up Alexis Garrish, second runner-up Louise Daniel, third runner-up Sophia Martin and fourth runner-up Brielle Simmons.
