The Milwaukee, Wisconsin, native came to WKU in 2023 as a junior after time spent at Hawaii Hilo and Indian Hills Community College.
Through two years as a Topper, McHenry led WKU back to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in 10 seasons and was a top scorer during his time in Bowling Green, averaging 16 points per game through 66 appearances.
His production on offense wasn’t just up high on the Hilltoppers charts, but also within Conference USA, where in 2023, McHenry was the fourth highest scorer and in 2024, McHenry was the fifth-highest scorer.
McHenry racked up many league honors throughout his team in CUSA, including four Player of the Week awards, All-CUSA First (2023) and Second Team (2024) recognitions, and CUSA Tournament MVP (2023).
The guard now moves into the Big 12 to play for the Utes, who finished 11th in their conference just a season ago.
