Autofilling?

I have built a spreadsheet for a Masters Golf pool. I have 34 teams of 13 players. How do I apply a filter or something that will fill in the scores for all of the teams?
There are a total of 54 players - and I only want to enter their scores once. I want the spreadsheet to recognize "woods" is cells b2 and e2 and automatically drop his score "69" into cels C2 and F2. I have set up all of the 54 players names and scores on a separate tab.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

this sounds like a job for vlookup (for one score) or sumif (for summing several scores).

See the help file for details, but an simplified vlookup goes something like this
Vlookup("A",$A$1:$B$10,2,0)
where
A is what you want to looks up (Woods)
A1:B10 is the range your score is entered. column A must contain "Woods" and column B has the corresponding score
2 is the column you want the value from
0 just tells excel you want an exact match.

Simplified Sumif is
sumif($A$1:$a$10,"A",$b1:$B$10)
This says will return the values in B1-B10 for the values in a1:A10 that equal A (woods)

Good luck
