Once again Daytona State went on a run, tying the match 17-17 before a Maredis Colon kill. Nieves came up big down the stretch with some kills, including one that tied the match at 22-22 and again at 24-24 but Daytona State College won the next two points to take the third set 26-24.
The Titans (7-7, 0-2 in the conference) will travel to Ocala to play the College of Central Florida on Tuesday and will be back at Titan Field House next Friday night, hosting Lake Sumter State College at 6 p.m.
