Problem of the Month
Rocky Mountain Lobos
The five starting basketball players for the Rocky Mountain Lobos scored all 95 points in their win
last night over their crosstown rivals the Fort Collins Lambkins. Assuming all their statements made
in the locker room were true, how many points did each player score?
Noah: No two of us scored the same number of points.
Robby: Taaveti was our fourth highest scorer.
Aidan: All five of us finished with an odd number of points.
Taaveti: Aidan scored two points more than Robby.
Jackson: Noah was our top scorer with 23 points.
