    B). Pathos.

    Explanation:

    Pathos is one of the three key rhetorical elements to persuade readers. The other two being logos and ethos. It is regarded as the communicative technique or quality that employs the use of certain words that appeal to the senses of the readers and evoke an emotional response from them. Thus, according to the question, Coach has employed pathos as the rhetoric device that stirs up the emotions of the players and persuades them to perform well and win the game. Pathos is a ('powerful artistic mode of persuasion' as Aristotle says) rhetoric device that deals emotionally to convince the people to believe in a certain idea or thought and to believe it.
