President Barack Obama and Lynx head coach Cheryl Reeve spoke today, per a press release from the White House Office of the Press Secretary. Details are, well, a little vague. Here's the entire release:

Earlier today, President Obama called Cheryl Reeve, head coach of the Minnesota Lynx, to congratulate her and her team on winning the 2011 WNBA Finals. The President told Coach Reeve that he is very proud of the way the Lynx played this season and of all the hard work that lead [sic] to the team's first WNBA title this year. The President said he looks forward to congratulating the team in person at the White House.
