The Joan Perry Brock Center is a 3,000-seat indoor multi-use arena and convocation center, located on the campus of Longwood University in Farmville, Virginia. The arena is home to the university's men's and women's basketball programs, replacing Willett Hall.[9]
The arena is named after Joan Brock, a philanthropist and 1964 alum, who provided $15 million, the largest gift in Longwood University's history.[1][10] Like Willett Hall the basketball court is named after former Longwood basketball player Jerome Kersey, officially making the hardwood Jerome Kersey Court.[11][12]
