 the number of points scored by the Storm in the first half was equal to the number of points scored by the Chargers in the second half of the game
S1 = C2

In the first half the Storm scored one-fourth the total points scored in the game
S1 = 1/4 (T)

During the second half the Chargers scored 16 points less than one-third the points scored in the game. 
C2 = 1/3(T) - 16

Solving for
S1
C2
and
T

T is the total points of the game
