Nino is believed to be the first boy wrestler from Carroll to sign to compete in college. He ended his high school career with 185 wins, 100 pins, a State Championship and three State appearances.

"I never imagined it, but I mean all throughout the 4 years the end goal is being State Champs. I mean, you know, having that success led me here. It was the right place for me. It was like one of the only schools in Texas that offered me a full ride, and you know I really love the staff over there and the coaches made me feel at home first time I started talking to them," Nino said.
