Default Count Occurrences In A Column, Then Display In A Table

I need to figure out how to count occurrences (all lined up in two columns),
that will then be displayed in a table. The occurrences are a series of
rankings (1 - 7) spaced over 20 intervals.

The column looks like this.
COLUMN 1 COLUMN 2
1 Sally
2 Sue
3 Sam
4 Suzy
5 Sherri
6 Sandra
7 Serena

The above is repeated twenty times. The COLUMN 1 will have "1" in the very
next row (say A9), with a different order for the seven girls.

I created a table that looks like this

NAME 1 2 3 4 5 6
7
SALLY
SUE
SAM
SUZY
SHERRI
SANDRA
SERENA

I need a formula that will populate how many times each girl was selected
first, second, third.... all the way to seventh.

SALLY might look like this.

NAME 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
SALLY 5 3 2 5 1 3
1

I tried creating a pivot table, but the pivot table is problematic since
this order is randomly generated by using the F9 key. Whenever I 'refresh'
the data in the pivot table, it re-randomize the numbers. The pivot table is
then displaying the old numbers. This is for a report, so all the numbers
must match. In short, I need this to run from a formula, and not a pivot
table.

THANKS!!!!
