Through the first twelve games of the 2010 season, Moniz led the Warriors to a 9–3 record as he completed 287 of 434 passes for 3,934 yards and 28 touchdowns.

In January 2009, Moniz enrolled at the University of Hawaii and joined the Hawaii Warriors football team as a non-scholarship walk-on player. Moniz began the 2009 season as Hawaii's third-string quarterback, but won the starting job after quarterbacks Brent Rausch and Greg Alexander were injured. Moniz delivered pizzas to pay his school expenses and to support his daughter Cali, becoming "somewhat of a folk hero." He played his first game as a starter against Fresno State on October 10, 2009. Although Hawaii lost 42–17, Moniz passed for 283 yards, including two touchdowns and two interceptions. In his second game as a starter, Moniz passed for 360 yards and rushed for another 32 yards against Idaho. Later in the season, Moniz missed three consecutive games because of a tear in his left biceps. For the season, Moniz started eight games for the 2009 Hawaii Warriors football team. He completed 182 of 319 passes for 2,396 yards and 14 touchdowns. With a quarterback rating of 239.6, he ranked 29th nationally during the 2009 college football season. He also ranked 32nd in the nation with 251.3 yards of total offense per game.

After one semester in Fresno, Moniz returned to Hawaii in 2008 with his girlfriend, Kiley Kealoha. The couple had a daughter who they named Cali in tribute to their time in Fresno.

In 2007, Moniz enrolled at Fresno City College in Fresno, California. As Fresno's starting quarterback in 2007, Moniz passed for 2,268 yards and 18 touchdowns. Moniz later recalled his semester in Fresno as follows: "I lived in a studio with all eight of my animals (two bulldog puppies, two poi dogs and four rabbits). I was a real student-athlete at Fresno. I had a 4.0 (grade-point average) in my one semester there. I didn't have a car. My girlfriend was there, so I didn't go to too many parties. I pretty much went to school and played football."

Moniz was born in Wahiawā, Hawai'i. He attended Leilehua High School in Wahiawa, where he was the starting quarterback for the Leilehua Mules for three years from 2004 to 2006. As a sophomore, Moniz passed for 2,879 yards and 27 touchdowns and led Leilehua to the state championship game. He was selected as an all-state player in both football and soccer.
