Mona made a return to Rosewood High in the mid-season return of “Pretty Little Liars”. The new Mon”A” hit the halls with a campaign for forgiveness for her,…minor set backs….from last season, otherwise known as operation crazy. This sudden change overnight doesn’t fly well with the fab four Liars, yet she’s not the only one to make an appearance at school. Aria is shocked to discover Meredith is her new substitute (ha what are the odds?).Meanwhile, Spence wants Aria to confront Byron about a certain run-in he had with Alison before her murder, yet Aria seems to have her hands full with Ezra and his…child? (LOL, its a boy!)

Perhaps the greatest athletic forum our generation will ever see comes about every wintertime in New Canaan. It is the pantheon in which men are turned into champions, legacies are built and memories are etched in the collective minds of those involved. YMCA basketball, undoubtedly the most competitive sporting event known to man, is the culmination of years of serious training and development, highlighted by the fast paced, intense action of a Yball game.
