He came on as a stoppage-time substitute for Brian Iloski as Orange County won 2–1.[2] Henry won the 2021 USL Championship finals with Orange County SC, though he was an unused sub in the game against Tampa Bay Rowdies.

In January 2022, it was rumored that Henry was going on trial with French side Reims, though no move could be made official until he turns 18.
