### Note

$^†:$ Women's 3000 metres steeplechase and heptathlon might have been treated as exhibition because of the low number of participants (only 2 and 3 athletes, respectively). This could explain the difference between a published medal table and the unofficial count above for Costa Rica and El Salvador.

## Team Ranking
