Pembroke girl’s note wins White House visit, Obama praise

PEMBROKE – Annoyed by her younger brother's teasing comments that women's soccer was inferior while she watched a championship game in June, 13-year-old Ayla Ludlow knew exactly what to do. So she fired off a note to the president — of the United States.
"Whoever is reading this should know that I hate the fact that boys' sports always get the most attention," she wrote to President Barack Obama after the spat with her brother Nick while watching a World Cup match.
