What he has done<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Friday’s 6-3 victory over rival West Chester East, Henry provided the winning margin with a hat trick. He also was selected to the Inter- County League Class AAA all-star
team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best High School moment<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a sophomore, he was a member of the Henderson team that tied West Chester East, 2-2. It was the first time since the two programs split in 1987 that Henderson had gained a point against East.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Braveheart<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“In the next few years…”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I see myself going to Penn State and playing on their hockey team and getting the first few years of my education. I want to concentrate on getting good grades. I think I’m going to study engineering.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Ten years from now…”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Ten years down the road, I see myself starting a family and trying to get a good job and finish up my education. I want to go to grad school. I might play [hockey] a little on the side in adult leagues.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What his coach says<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“He is one of two captains, and he has been with me for four years. From his freshman year on, he has improved every year and gotten better and better. He has one of the best wrist shots I’ve ever seen. He’s the kind of kid every coach dreams of.” – Phil Robinson<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
