Lycoming College freshman Alexandra Feerrar was named first runner-up in the Miss Pennsylvania Teen USA 2008 pageant held Nov. 23-25 in Pittsburgh. She was also selected Miss Photogenic during the pageant.

The 97 contestants in this year’s pageant were judged on three competitions: interview, swimsuit and evening gown. In the event the pageant’s winner is unable to fulfill the duties as Miss Pennsylvania Teen USA, Feerrar will carry out this year’s reign.

Feerrar, a native of Jersey Shore, Pa., is majoring in biology at Lycoming. She is involved with Best Buddies, a campus organization designed to enhance the lives of people with intellectual disabilities by providing opportunities for one-to-one friendships and integrated employment.
