LONDON - Derek Asbun started and Jason Law joined the fray as a reserve for Oxford University Thursday at Twickenham as the 2011 California
co-captains became the fourth and fifth former Golden Bears to earn a Varsity Blue and Oxford defeated Cambridge, 28-10, in their 130th meeting.

"It was an all-around team effort," said Asbun, who was listed as a candidate for Man of the Match by the Sky 1 TV broadcast team. "All we
wanted to do was come through."

Asbun and Law join former Bears and U.S. internationals Gary Hein, Don James Jr. and Ray Lehner in the select group to have played in the series
as postgraduates. Asbun started as a flanker and Law provided vital support to the forwards as a blood-substitute after Oxford captain John
Carter was forced off the pitch with an injury during the first half.

Today's performance by these Rugby Bears brings the Cal alumni presence in the revered Oxford-Cambridge rivalry to nine matches by five players in
its history.

Asbun is studying for a postgraduate degree in Urban Studies at Oxford while Law pursues a Master of Science degree in Sustainable Urban
Development.

The rugby program at Oxford was founded in 1869, 13 years before Cal began its team. Cambridge continues to lead the all-time series against Oxford
in the Varsity Match, 61-55-14.

The 130th year of Cal rugby kicks off in January.
