Try:

=(A1="Win")*3+(A1="Tie")*1

Notice that no "IF"s are neded. Also notice that "Loss" is automatically
covered since it yields zero anyway

Any assistance is appreciated:

Column A will list results that a team has - only possible results are

"win", "tie", or "loss". You get three points for a win, one point for
a tie
and zero for a loss.

So if A1 is a win, B1 will display "3"

How would I write that equation. The below is not working ...
=IF(A1="Win","3"),IF(A1="Tie","1"),IF(A1="Loss","0 ")
