C is correct. D is incorrect because we already know we're talking about Jodi, we don't have to use "she" again.

The correct sentence without any punctuation errors is Option D: 'Seeing the finish line, Jodi, one of the runners, sprinted, and she won the race.' This option properly uses a comma to separate two related independent clauses. Options A, B, and C contain various punctuation errors, such as unnecessary semicolons and comma splices.
