Hawaii is the most recent state to participate in Miss USA, first competing in 1962.
Prior to being admitted to full statehood in 1959, it sent delegates to Miss Universe.
Four Miss USA winners came from Hawaii, one of four states with four titles (only second to Texas and California).
Though many Miss USA winners and semifinalists came from Hawaii, relatively few have placed as runners-up.
Many Miss Hawaii USA titleholders competed at a number of international pageants.
