Oxford University captain Peter Clarke is in the England Students' squad to face their Scotland counterparts tomorrow night, despite being a proud Welshman!
Clarke joins fellow Dark Blues Ricky Lutton, Tom Gregory and Toby Henry in the 22 for the clash at Lasswade RFC on the outskirts of Edinburgh.
He said: "My mother is English so I qualify through her.
"I played for England Universities two years ago, so I have already got over the hurdle of pulling on an England shirt."
Other local players taking on the Scots tomorrow include former Chipping Norton junior Greg King and Henley Hawks' on-loan winger Mark Odejobi.
King, who plays for Worcester Warriors and Odejobi, who is contracted to London Wasps, have been called up to England's Under 20 Six Nations squad.
Odejobi, who is 20 on Sunday, has also been capped at Under 16 and 18 levels, while King was a member of last season's England squad at the Under 19 World Championship in Belfast.
- Cambridge University's Varsity Match winning half-backs have both signed short-term contracts with London Irish.
Scrum half Ross Blake, who was man-of-the-match at Twickenham in December and fly half Ross Broadfoot have joined the Guinness Premiership club until the end of the season.
