Probably impetigo. It's very contagious. Wash gently with soap and water, dry it and put Newsporin on it twice a day. The scab has to be open like bleeding or weepy for the ointment to get in. It should dry up with immediate relief and completely within a few days.
 
I had a zit that was about 75% white head on my mid to upper calf. I didnt pop it because i wrestle and i figured it might be ringworm. Later today a 2nd zit appeared in the same area on my other leg. I think that the zit might hav rubbed against that part of my leg and spread it. I currently have ringworm cream on it and hav it wrapped. Is this some type of ringworm? staph? impetago? or just a random zit alignment?
 
This might be MRSA because locker rooms are notorious for spreading this nasty germ. You need to get to your doctor to see if this is in fact MRSA (methicillin resistant staph aureus) and get on an antibiotic. Then, the school needs to be notified and the locker rooms completely disinfected.
