He played a reserve role as a freshman, then started for his last three years. As a junior in the 2008–09 season, Koch averaged 12.1 points and 5.4 rebounds per game while leading the Panthers to a shared Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) regular-season title and a 2009 MVC tournament championship. Koch was named first team all-MVC.[1]

As a senior in 2009–10 season, Koch again led the Panthers to MVC regular season and tournament championships. Koch averaged 11.7 points and 4.9 rebounds and was named MVC Player of the Year. The Panthers entered the 2010 NCAA Tournament as a #9 seed and in the second round defeated the #1 seed Kansas Jayhawks 69-67 to advance to the program's first Sweet 16. At the conclusion of the season, Koch was named an honorable mention All-American by the Associated Press and was a finalist for the Lowe's Senior CLASS Award.[2]

For his career, Koch scored 1,186 points.[1]
