Solution
The correct option is C was
It is to be kept in mind that Either, Neither, Each, Everyone, Many a, must be followed by a singular verb.
'Each participant' means each individual participant. So, we are referring to a singular noun. By the general convention, a singular noun takes a singular verb. Hence, Option D 'was' is correct and Option C 'were' is incorrect.
Options A and B are irrelevant to the context.
