Given the provided input file and your instructions, you could split your problem and try something simple, like this:

Code:
line=321

score=`awk -v "l=${line}" '$3 == l { print $2 }' input_file.txt`

awk -v "s=${score}" '
   $2 == s {
      n=$1;
      if (!min || (n<min)) min=n;
      if (!max || (n>max)) max=n;
   }
   END {
      print min, max;
   }
' input_file.txt
