In the 40th Anniversary Edition of Footprints Junius was chosen as the best overall male runner in the life of the NOTC. The listing designation was based on consistent quality running over a minimum period of 10 years. Junius began running in the early 1970's and his best times as an open division runner include a 15:15 5K, a 32:16 10K, and 1:08:00 for the half-marathon.

As a masters division runner his best times include a 16:10 for the 5K and 34:00 for the 10K. An article in Footprints in 2001 refers to Junius as a true NOTC hall of fame athlete, even though the club did not have a Hall of Fame until 2013. For those NOTC members who remember the 1980's, 1990's and the early 2000's, Junius is a familiar name and face, as he was always among the winners at multiple events each year.
