Joe Licata is still the Western New York record holder for most passing yards in a single

game, but Billies officials reported on Friday night that after further review they need to

set the record straight.

Instead of 522 yards, the Williamsville South junior quarterback threw for an official 492.

The 30-yard difference involved two plays that were discovered after a careful review of the

film.

The first play was 15-yard penalty that was added onto the end of a 20-yard catch. Licata

was originally credited with a 35-yard completion. The second play was a 15-yard penalty was

erroneously recorded as a 15-yard catch.

Licata's record effort came in a 62-32 nonleague win over Williamsville North.

"We got a hold of the game film this morning and saw that those yards were misrepresented,"

said South assistant coach Kevin Lester Jr. "We're not playing any games, we're just doing our

best to get it right."

The previous record for most yards passing in a game of 455 had been held since 1980 by

Jerry Hickson of Cheektowaga.
