Default Optimization challenge

I have a cycling management game in which cyclists (column A) score points
(column B) and cost money (column C).
After every stage I want to know what the ultimate team of 10 point scoring
cyclists is with the constraint that
the team of 10 may not cost more than 10.000.

I know quit well what Excel is capable of, but I am no maths expert.
What is the best apporach and does anybody have an idea.
Should I be using the solver, goal-seek or making a complex macro ?


Thanks in advance;
