Oxford Ladies secured local bragging rights with a 23-0 victory at Witney Angels in Midlands 1.
Wing Amy Atkinson starred with four tries, while fly half Catherine Page kicked a penalty.
This was Oxford’s first win of the season, but it was not good enough to save them from relegation.
Witney, for whom Heidi Huxtable impressed in the backs, must now win their final match at Buckingham Swans on April 19 to have any chance of staying up.
Even then, Angels must hope rivals Longton Ladies collect no more than three points from their remaining four fixtures – starting at Oxford, also on April 19.
