As a high school student, Henderson played summer baseball for the Okotoks Dawgs. Henderson graduated from Central Memorial High School before playing two seasons at Midland College, a junior college in Texas, and then moving on to Tennessee Wesleyan College of the NAIA.
Henderson was drafted by the Montreal Expos in the 26th round of the 2003 Major League Baseball draft. He made his professional debut that summer playing first for the Rookie League GCL Expos, then the Class A (Short Season) Vermont Expos.
