Should I stop thinking investment banking from now??

I'm a freshman at UVa. This is my worst grade at least for now. I know I'm going to get bad grade on this class but I never expected a B-. I know ibanks want people with good math skills, and now I got a B- on this class. Is my chance of getting hired by them lowered significantly?? Should I take another math class again to show that I'm not a person with low quantitative skills?

My basic math is not bad. I got 750 on SAT Math and I got A on AP Calc BC back in high school.

This is totally out of the blue. I don't know what to do. Please help.
