The answer is: C ,
When introducing a complete direct quote, and it is placed after reporting verbs such as said, wrote, or reported, a comma is placed in front of the opening quotation mark, leaving it outside the quotation mark as well.
Thus, the correct version of the sentence is the following:
Monique clutched the championship trophy and said, "This one's for Karen!"
