Junk Defenses:
Basically junk defenses are different types of zones but it's what you run out of the zone. Like you can start out in a 2-3 zone but there is different things you can do out of that set. Like wise with all zone defenses.
In the case of Mercyhurst... They run that triangle and 2 BUT sometimes they pressure the 3 point line and sometimes they don't depending who has the ball, etc. They also give it the appearance of man to man sometimes but it really isn't. That's where the term "junk" comes from.
