Naveed Bagheri captured the individual championship in the 141-pound weight class on Jan. 2 at the Menlo College Invitational in Atherton, Calif. The SF State junior posted a 4-0 mark, including a pin, en route to his second straight title at the annual meet after winning at 133 last season.

Bagheri began the day with a pair of victories over two Central College adversaries, notching a 17-1 triumph by technical fall over Carlos Hernandez before coming away with a 11-2 major decision over Alex Wright. The Los Gatos product soon dispatched Kurtis Giberson of Simon Fraser with a second-period pin in the semifinals, followed by a tight 3-1 decision over Menlo’s Christian Martinez in the championship bout. Earlier in the season, Bagheri also emerged victorious over Martinez at the NWCA All-Star Classic on Nov. 21.

With his performance, Bagheri, who is ranked sixth at 141 in the latest NCAA Division II poll, raised his record to 11-4 on the season with two pins and three victories by technical fall.
