Sofia West was all smiles as she was crowned Miss Wolfson 2024 during the “Saturday Night Fever”-themed annual pageant at Samuel Wolfson School for Advanced Studies on Jan. 27. The competition was the closest ever in the pageant’s history, as there was a tie for first runner-up between Ella Hutsell and Skye Mason-Raper, with both earning the title and right to compete at the Miss Wolfson Sweetheart pageant next fall.
West showcased her speed-painting during the talent portion of the competition, alongside impressive showings of musical, dance and poetry talents, as well as never-before-seen skills by martial artist Anna Jones and Mallory Howell’s unique archery demonstration that split an apple from across the stage.
The pageant highlighted 11 junior contestants: Julia Allen, Summer Aurelian, Malia Burt, Romeaka Edwards, Josalyn Horton, Mallory Howell, Ella Hutsell, Anna Jones, Iris Locure, Skye Mason-Raper and Sofia West. Hutsell earned the Scholarship Award, and Locure was named “Most Photogenic.” Allen was a triple winner of the “Most Talented,” “Most Loyal” and “Miss Congeniality” awards.
