Three Leicester Tigers players shared in a 26-11 win over Scotland for England Under-20s which keeps alive their hopes of winning the Six Nations.Flanker Will Owen started the game for England, and he was joined in the second half by fellow forward Charlie Beckett and by prop Owen Hills, making his debut at this level.
Tries from James Mitchell, Paul Hill and James Chisholm put England in the driving seat while Rory Jennings added 11 points with his boot.
Head coach Jon Callard said: “It’s great to get the win, but we always want to put in a good performance and I think we left a bit out there today. But we get together on Monday and will prepare for what will be a huge game against France.”
