A Moses Lake High School student will represent Washington in the Distinguished Young Women national scholarship program next summer.

Jana Osborne, the daughter of Jenni and Kevin Osborne, was selected Saturday during the annual state program held at Washington State University's Beasley Performing Arts Coliseum.

Fourteen high school seniors competed, and more than $10,000 in college scholarships and awards was presented.

The first runner-up was May Qiang, representing Pullman. Her parents are Xili Yao and You Qiang.

Kaiden Quigley, an Othello High School student, was the second runner-up. Her parents are Heather and Mark Quigley.

The program, formerly America’s Junior Miss, promotes itself as the largest and oldest national scholarship program for high school girls.
