Team USA took the women's 4x400M relays in 3:25.68s. They were followed across the line by Jamaica in 3:27.27s. The Canadian women ran their season best of 3:27.74, which gave them third place. The Barbados team, however, got disqualified.
Meanwhile, new Pan Am Games records were established in the 4x100s.
