Golf for 15 2009-08-18
From Judy:
We have a group of 15 golfers that play a scramble with groups of 3. The problem is we play for 14 weeks. We want every player to play at least once with everyone and no more that 3 times. I am working on this and have just about accomplished the schedule, but with a few playing more than 3 times. I'm sure there must be some mathematical calculation to do this but I have yet to figure it out.

The corresponding scores in the other school were 84, 81 and 90, respectively. If the average score of all boys was 79, what did the girls score on average?
