You could say Monday’s 60.5-11.5 loss against Danvers feels like ancient history for Peabody’s varsity golf squad.
That’s because the Tanners bounced back with a 42-30 win against the Salem Witches at Olde Salem Greens Golf Course Thursday.
Playing a more relaxed game, according to coach Peter Cronan, Peabody took care of business behind strong performances from Tristan Joyce, Anthony Mugdano, Ryan Lockhart, Chris Brown, George Grace, and McKenzie Campbell.
The Tanners return Wednesday against Northeastern Conference foe Marblehead. The action is slated for 4 p.m. at Tedesco Country Club.
