formula to return value based on MAX outcome

Hey folks,

I have a list of numeric values and want to return the value in the column adjacent to it:

ie. Rows H6:H17 contain numeric values
Rows G6:G17 contain names

In cell H20 I'd like a formula that looks up the max value in range H6:H17 and returns the adjacent value from column G.

I've tried this formula:

=INDEX(G6:G17,MATCH(MAX(H6:H17),H6:H17))

but this returns the last value in the range G6:G17. Is there an Offset I could use?

Any help most appreciated as always,

Steve

try
=INDEX(G6:G17,MATCH(MAX(H6:H17),H6:H17,0))
