I suspect a question of this sort has been asked before and I apologize if this a repetitive type of question.

I'm trying to complete a football statistics spreadsheet. Below is an image of the "in-game data" worksheet.

The above image (I'm hoping I posted it from a URL correctly; if not, I'll try a different approach) shows four (4) different quarterbacks attempting and completing passes in the first quarter. (I have several nested IF statements that automatically enters a player's name from another worksheet in the file once that player's uniform number has been entered in column B of the above image.)

What I want to do is search the "in game data" worksheet and create - on a separate worksheet in the same file - a summary of the first quarter data, such that I can see the total number of passes attempted and completed by each individual quarterback. In the above example, quarterback Phil Dumfie completed 7 of 10 passes (chronologically in rows 3-12), Bill Smith completed 4 of 6 passes (rows 13-18), Ed West completed 2 of 4 passes (rows 19-22), and John Doe completed 1 of 2 passes (rows 23-24).

In the "summary" worksheet (below image) I want to capture totals for each respective quarterback's performance in the first quarter.

I'm thinking VLOOKUP might be the way to do this, i.e., looking in the "in-game data" worksheet and summarizing how each quarterback did in terms of total passes attempted and completed in the "summary" worksheet, but I'm not well versed in using VLOOKUP. (Again, if I messed up posting an image of the summary worksheet correctly I'll try something else).

Any help in solving this would be GREATLY appreciated. If I can learn how to do this example I can apply it to rushing, receiving, etc. statistics.
