St Mirren defender Marc McAusland has signed a new contract that will tie him to his hometown club until the summer of 2015.
The club revealed the centre-back had taken time out of preparations for the Scottish League Cup final against Hearts on Sunday to sign a two-year extension.
McAusland has made more than 100 appearances for Saints, with whom he rejoined in 2010 following a season with Queen of the South.
St Mirren also announced that Jamie McKernon had left the club after "cancelling his contract by mutual consent".
