Miss USA 2017: Kara McCullough crowned in 2nd win in row for D.C. contestant LAS VEGAS -- For the second year in a row, the winner of the Miss USA pageant is from the District of Columbia.

The second runner-up is Miss Minnesota Meridith Gould. "I'm extremely thankful for this opportunity," McCullough said after the event. "I just want to encourage so many women nationwide to find their passion in any subject possible and understand that nothing is difficult if you really, truly put the work in for it." McCullough was born in Naples, Italy, and raised in Virginia Beach, Virginia. She said she wants to inspire children to pursue careers in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Music credit: "Lauren Noel" by Rick Dickert by Freesoundtrackmusic.com.
