A native of Arnold, Penn. (Ford City HS), Najeway came to the old campus in 1947 as a 22-year old freshman, having served in the Merchant Marines where he was a member of the base championship team and team MVP. A four-year starter for the Demon Deacons from 1948-51, Najeway was considered the best frosh on the team during the 1947-48. After averaging 8.6 points per game as a sophomore, he was selected to the All-Southern Conference Tournament team in 1950 and was a starting forward in the SoCon All-Star game in 1951. A second team All-Southern Conference pick in 1949 and 1950, Najeway was considered one of the top 50 players in the country.
