PHILADELPHIA, Pa. | The Penn Relays Carnival recently announced the members of  2020 Wall of Fame class. This class includes four individuals and five relay teams, and they will be honored on the final day of the 2020 Relays, Saturday, April 25 at Franklin Field.
 
FAMU's fabled 1968 Florida A&M 440-yard relay quartet, comprised of Nathaniel James, Major Hazleton, Eugene Milton and James Ashcroft, coached by Bobby E. Lang, is among the five relay teams being honored.

That Florida A&M foursome remains the only group in Relays history at any level to win three straight years in the same event with the same lineup. 
 
After winning in 1966, they broke Abilene Christian's 1959 record of 40.9 with a time of 40.6 in 1967, then broke that mark in 1968 with a 40.4, retiring the J.C. Patterson Cup for three consecutive victories.
 
Their 1968 mark was broken by UTEP in 1970. 
 
Florida A&M was the second Historically Black College or University and only the third team overall to win three straight 440-yard relays.
