Competing as the island's final representative at the Games, the promising young thrower registered a best effort of 35.13 metres against an elite international field.
Sousa, who has steadily emerged as one of Bermuda's brightest prospects in field events, gave a committed account of herself on the global stage. While she fell just shy of her personal bests, the display capped an invaluable week of high-level experience among the world's finest junior competitors.
Her appearance in the final brought the curtain down on Bermuda's collective participation at the Games, with the island's four-strong contingent having represented the nation across track and field, swimming, and triathlon.
