Junior Burr, Longwood '97, Builds Canterbury Enterprises From Basketball Lessons

Junior Burr was a member of perhaps Longwood's most cohesive and talented men's basketball team ever, certainly on the Division II level. The 1993-94 Lancers racked up 20 straight wins and won a game in the college's first appearance in the NCAA Division II tournament. While his playing time was limited, he applied lessons learned on a bigger stage. As the founder and owner of Canterbury Enterprises, Inc., Burr's company is a key contributor in commercial construction and real estate development in Virginia. Canterbury teamed with Skanska USA to build the Joan Perry Brock Center at Longwood University.
