Courtney Allen (Monument, Colo.) anchored the gold-medal winning women’s 400m freestyle relay with a split of 55.58. The U.S. team held a seven-hundredths of a second lead going into Allen’s leg and ended up winning with a time of 3:47.98. Cassidy Maxwell (Indiatlantic, Fla.) led off the relay, followed by Kim Black (Syracuse, N.Y.) and Alison Terry (San Diego, Calif.).

Winning bronze medals for the U.S. were Katie Zimbone (Needham, Mass.) in the 400m free (4:17.30) and Linda Riker (Ann Arbor, Mich.) in the 200m backstroke (2:13.56).
