Transferring data between strings in C

I'm trying to get this code to work, however I can't see any problems with it. Scores are inputted for each of the 8 games, and then the winner's name is meant to be imported into a new name array. However, the logic only seems to work on certain data when inputted.

void firstWinner(char firstScore[PLAYERS][SCORE], 
char name[PLAYERS][LEN], char quarterName[QUARTERPLAYERS][LEN])
{
    int playerOneWinCount = 0;
    int playerTwoWinCount = 0;
    int i;
    int j;
    int x = 0;


    for(i=0; i < PLAYERS; i+=2, x++)
    {

        for(j=0; j < SCORE; j++)
        {
            if(firstScore[i][j] > firstScore[i+1][j])
            {
                playerOneWinCount++;
            }
            else if(firstScore[i][j] < firstScore[i+1][j])
            {
                playerTwoWinCount++;
            }

        }

        if(playerOneWinCount > playerTwoWinCount)
        {

            strcpy(quarterName[x], name[i]);
        }
        else if(playerOneWinCount < playerTwoWinCount)
        {
            strcpy(quarterName[x], name[i+1]);
        }
    }

}

You need to reset the win count values to 0 at the beginning of the players loop.
