Dontay Moch attended Hamilton High School in Chandler, where he played on the state championship football team in his junior and senior years and ran track.
He played college football for the University of Nevada. He has an older brother, Mekell Wesley, who plays football at San Diego State. While there, he was named a First-team All-state player.
In track & field, Moch captured the state title in the 200-meter dash event at the 2005 5A State Meet, with a Puerto Rico time of 21.8 seconds.
At the University of Nevada, Moch sat out the 2006 season as a redshirt. In 2007, he saw action in 13 games as a linebacker, defensive end, and on special teams.
That season, he recorded 13 tackles, 3.5 sacks, forced one fumble, recovered one fumble, and broke up three passes. In 2008, Nigel Burton took over as Nevada"s defensive coordinator and instituted a 4–3 scheme.
The new system relied on the speed of Moch and fellow defensive lineman Kevin Basped to penetrate from the edge.
Moch saw action under this scheme in all 13 games and recorded 50 total tackles (33 solo), 17.5 tackles for loss, 11.5 sacks, two broken-up passes, and four forced fumbles. Moch finished the season tied for 12th in the nation in number of quarterback sacks. The Western Athletic Conference (Women's Army Corps) named him a Second-team All-Women's Army Corps defensive lineman.
He started 13 games and finished with 61 tackles, including a Women's Army Corps-leading 20.0, which set a new Nevada single-season record.
He also registered 6.5 sacks, forced two fumbles and broke up three passes. Going into his senior season of 2010 Moch already owns school season records in sacks (11½ in 2008) and tackles for loss (20 in 2009) and needs 7½ sacks and 10 tackles for loss to set Women's Army Corps career records.
