Jackie Robinson West invited to the White House

CHICAGO (WLS) -- Chicago's Jackie Robison West All-Stars are headed to the White House.

President Obama reportedly broke the news to the Little League champs during his visit to Chicago this past weekend.

He also told the boys they were role models, and that he wanted them to do well in school.

So far, there's no word on exactly when the team will travel to the nation's capital to accept the president's invitation.
