Bryce Harper gets high school a new locker room, is a pretty great guy
It’s really hard not to like Bryce Harper!
He and his teammates found a totally transformed locker room. No longer dingy and white with a floor football player Mike Williams described as “always sticky,” it now had freshly painted white walls with Anacostia logos on any spaces big enough to fit them, and a new, smooth blue floor.
They saw new wooden benches with inspirational messages like “the only place success comes before work is in the dictionary” painted on them in red. They saw a bright new TV screen with the Anacostia logo glimmering on a blue background, a pristine white board, and black leather couches in the corner. Even the pipes running along the ceiling were painted red and blue.
“It’s magnificent,” Williams said. “I love it.”
Enter Bryce Harper.
