Vlookup return 2nd match
 

I have a quick question for you seasoned Excel gurus... I use Excel to track
win/loss streaks across several major league baseball teams. I then
consolidate them on one sheet with game date on the left, and the vlookup
results from the detail sheet for each team. I was doing fine, until April
27th when the Mets and Dodgers played a double-header, and now had 2 game
detail data for the one date. I know I can use a Countif(A1:A100, A2) to
determine if I have multiple dates, but don't know how to return the first
true on one line, and the 2nd true on a second line. Any ideas?
A B C
Mon, Apr 26 LA Dodgers POSTPONED
Tue, Apr 27 LA Dodgers W 4-0
Tue, Apr 27 LA Dodgers W 10-5
Wed, Apr 28 LA Dodgers W 7-3

where vlookup(A2, A1:C4, 3, False) = "W 4-0" ... then, I want to return "W
10-5" on the next line. Any ideas? I imagine there is a quick solution for
you pros, but I'm not sure how to get it done. Thanks for any help!
