Stuart, I think there is an easier way to approach
your solution. Is there any situation in which a line
needing to be parsed will contain a team that is /not/
on your list of teams?
Can you give us all the big picture? Tell us what
your project is and let us help you solve that instead
of these small snippets. If you can, give us a sample
of the input data (about 10 or 20 lines), tell us what
you expect and how you have decided to get there. We'll
be able to help you get there with perl.
I assume you are doing this at least partially as
an exercise to learn perl and my intent is not to do
the script for you, but a little more information would
aid me not pushing you into the wrong direction.
HTH,
Charles K. Clarkson
