Jamie Elliott scored twice in his return from injury as the Wanderers beat Oxford University 26-0 at Franklin’s Gardens on Monday night.
Elliott, who hasn’t played for Saints since February 11 due to a hamstring injury, got a brace inside nine minutes and was then withdrawn 17 minutes later.
The decision to replace the 20-year-old wing wizard was merely a precaution as it was always planned to haul him off before the 30-minute mark.
The Wanderers went on to score two more tries, through replacements Alex Wootton and Matt Williams, to clinch a comfortable victory.
Oxford had been hit by a red card to captain and No.8 John Carter, who put in an ugly elbow charge on Wanderers fly-half Will Hooley.
And the home side, already in control, proceeded to shut out the Dark Blues, making it a Varsity double after their recent win against Cambridge University.
