I cannot seem to get this to work. I have a table full of hockey teams records that I need to get the top three teams based on points but each team of the top three has to be from a different division.

Here is an example:

Table: Teams

TEAM | POINTS | DIVISION
T#1 25 DIV#1
T#2 23 DIV#1
T#3 30 DIV#2
T#4 12 DIV#2
T#5 26 DIV#3
T#6 27 DIV#3

The result should look like this:
1. T#3
2. T#6
3. T#1

Not look like this:
1. T#3
2. T#6
3. T#5

Anybody have an idea what a select statement would look like for this?

Thanks is advance!
