Half orc fighter max starting HP

Question

A non-playing friend of mine was looking around in the DnDBeyond website and created a (what I assume was a 1st lvl) character: half-orc with a STR of 19 and CON of 18. He showed me on his phone, but all I saw were the stats, and HP of 18/18. He said it was a fighter. Is there a way to start w/ 18 HP, given these parameters? My calculation was 14 HP.

Half Orcs don't have anything to increase HP (besides a con bonus), fighters have d10 hit die. 18 con gives you +4 con bonus, so that increases your hp by 4. So at level 1 you have 10 + 4 = 14 max hp.
If they were level 2, and yet to roll hp, they would have 18/18 hp. They could have also accidentally changed their hp manually or added feats.
