Bethania de La Cruz had a match-high 23 points for the Dominican Republic. Kristin Hildebrand (captain USA NT) said: "We practice every day serving tough serves on the court. (During the fourth set serving run) I was just doing the same thing I always do when I go back to the end line. I was surrounded by a great group of girls that were doing a great job with blocking defense and allowed me to keep serving. The Dominican is a great team. They have a lot of talented girls. Great spikers and a libero that digs a lot of balls". Puerto Rico claimed the bronze medal by defeating Canada in all sets earlier in the day.
