Two best friends have been selected as Lockerbie Academy’s next Syracuse scholars.
Sixth year students Tristan Woolley and Joshua Halliday will undertake a year’s study at New York State University in America after a selection process for the programme which was set up in the wake of the Lockerbie Disaster.
The pair, both 17, are also East Kilbride Pirates U19 American Football teammates and part of the Scottish national squad.
