PREBLE COUNTY — Tri-County North moved to 3-1 on the season as Eaton, Twin Valley South and Preble Shawnee all suffered losses in Week 4 of the high school football season.

Eaton (1-3) falls 42-0 to Bellbrook

Coach Brad Davis said there was nothing much to say after Eaton’s blowout loss to Bellbrook.

“We didn’t show up to play,” he said.

He said preparation and execution both needed to be better.

“Our effort was embarrassing all around; not up to our standards here,” he said.

Davis said the Eagles will look to Franklin, who Eaton hosts on Friday, Sept. 25.
