Kpreps comment: Henson is a physical blocker and receiver that should transition well into the MIAA. He earned first-team All-Eastern Kansas League honors as a wide receiver this past fall. Henson finished with more than 1,500 receiving yards and 20 touchdowns in the past three seasons for the Tigers.
