After a four-match skid, the Frontier boys volleyball team is back in the win column. 

Taking on Belchertown on the road in an Eastern League matchup, the Redhawks took the opening two sets before coming back to win the fourth to walk away with a 3-1 victory. 

Set scores were 25-16, 25-21, 21-25, 25-22. 

Nate Rivera and Tegan Dexter both put down 19 kills, Rivera adding two aces and 13 digs while Dexter came up with nine digs for Frontier. Tavo Vincent-Warner dished 39 assists to go along with two aces, Will Petrin tallied four kills and two aces while Evan Maio made 14 digs in the win. 

It was a much-needed win for Frontier (5-10), which lost to Belchertown in five sets back on April 24 after leading 2-0 in that match.
