2017 season preview: Elkhorn Valley has seen incredible success on the track the past few seasons and 2017 should be more of the same. 
The Falcons return three of their eight state qualifiers from 2016 in Brayden Effle, Austin Miller and Tyler Miller. The trio will lead a talented group comprised mostly of underclassmen as they look to repeat as district champions.
Among the athletes to watch is Dylan Wilkins. Wilkins is consistently one of the top throwers in the area and will have his sights set on Omaha.
Many members of the Falcons’ strong cross country team will also boost the teams’ depth on the track.
The Falcons will travel to Crete on March 16 to kick off the season at the Doane Indoor.
