Default Excel formula: select value in column if condition in 2nd col met

I want to construct a formula to select the largest value in a column of data
for only data that meets a condition in a second column. Specifically I want
to select the largest value in a column of data for only values that are
specified "WIN" in a second column.
Example:
column 1: cell A1 = 5, cell A2 = 10, cell A3 = 20
column 2: cell B1 = WIN, cell B2 = loss, cell B3 = WIN
So formula should give 20 as the result (eg largest WIN value).

I have pored over help guides and on-line references but can't do it, so if
anyone can help....pleease!
