The DLSU Animo Squad was originally known in its pre-war NCAA years as Br. John Lynam's 1924 LaS Rah! Rah! Boys, then in 1926 as the LSC Yell Commanders. The DLSC Squad was the first and oldest Collegiate Coed Spirit Team in the Philippines. It was renamed decades later on as the post-war DLSC Cheerleading Spirit Squad, then in the 1980s as the DLSU Pep Squad until 2008, when it was renamed by Br. Bernard Oca, FSC as the present DLSU Animo Squad. The DLSU Green & White Spirit Team has since then won five cheer dance podium finishes in the span of its UAAP participation, in 1994, 1996, 1998, 2011, and 2013. The original Lasallian cheerleading spirit team was formally established from 1924 to 1926 with four LaS Rah! Rah! Boys / LSC Yell Command pioneers. Brother John Lynam's pre-war LaS Rah! Rah! Boys, as well as his LSC and DLSC Yell Commander up to Br. Bernard Oca's present DLSU Animo Squad has been continuously cheerleading for 98 years. The original members of the LaS, LSC, and DLSC cheerleading squad were all male until the inclusion of female cheerleaders in the early 1970s. The DLSC cheerleading squad was the first spirit team in both the NCAA and UAAP to have female cheerleaders. The first female DLSC cheerleaders were cross-enrollees from St. Scholastica's College, Manila before De La Salle College turned co-educational in 1973. During De La Salle's pre-war years in the old NCAA, Lasallites enjoyed singing several pre-war battle songs such as "Men of La Salle!", "On Into The Fight" - Green Archers Song, "Cheer! Cheer! For O'l De La Salle", Go La Salle Battle Song, and several more. In 1941, the DLSC Green&White yearbook featured a vintage black and white photo of four elementary school boys who proudly wore their Green Archer costumes that formed the first Green Archer Grade School Boys mascot cheerleading squad. The "Hail to De La Salle" Alma Mater Song was originally composed and sung in 1961 by two De La Salle Christian Brothers, Br. Stephen Malachy, FSC and Br. Bonaventure Richards, FSC in a Lasallian high school in the United States, and is presently being sung in several Lasallian schools worldwide as a battle song. The tradition of singing the De La Salle Alma Mater Song while doing the defiant raised, pumping clenched fist "Hail! Hail! Hail!" salute has been performed since 1964. This famous Lasallian tradition was initiated by the DLSC spirit squad during the final buzzer of the Green Archers' only winless 1965 NCAA basketball season. It was the pain of suffering a zero-win NCAA season that the DLSC Yell Commanders started the tradition of proudly singing the De La Salle Alma Mater Song with their distinctly proud "Invictus La Salle" school spirit at the end of all their 1960s pre-martial law NCAA basketball battles. The De La Salle Alma Mater Song has always been traditionally sung in every Lasallian celebration, gathering, event, varsity game, meeting, party, alumni activity, alumni wake, and alumni funeral. This popular De La Salle tradition showcases the deep sense of brotherhood and unity in the "Animo La Salle!" battle cry which was later on emulated and presently being done by other rival NCAA colleges and UAAP universities at the end of every game. ANIMO! is the Lasallian term that summons every Lasallite to overcome adversity - "Spirit to Fight", and is also known as the call for the struggle for De La Salle's glory and honor. The battle cry was taken from the Latin word animus or to have and be of spirit. The "Animo La Salle!" battle cry was inspired by the 350-year-old Lasallian Spirit of "Faith&Zeal" of Saint Jean-Baptiste de La Salle and his Christian Brothers early founding struggles to be a religious educational institution in France.
Did you know that... several decades ago, the original DLS Yell Command Spirit Team had both a DLS HS and College Pep Band with a complete drum and bugle team. The DLS Yell Command used to have a huge repertoire of various traditional battle songs, fight cheers, and chants. The DLS Yell Command would start with cheers, drum beats, and chants to warm up the crowd. The DLS Yell Command would introduce the Green Archers as soon as they entered mid-court by singing an intro of - "When La Salle Goes Marching In Song which would be followed by the Zama cheer. As soon as the toss-up happens, the DLS Yell Command would sing the Green Archer Battle Song of "On into the Fight Song." The cheering style of the DLS Yell Command was a rotation of Battle Songs, Fight Cheers, and chants to keep the DLSC Gallery up on its toes the whole game.

Did you know that... the intro of the original Go La Salle Fight Song was done with a loud bugle blast. Several of La Salle's pre-war songs were musically accompanied by bugles and wind instruments during their NCAA games.
Did you know that... in the old NCAA, Lasallites would sing several of their fight songs more often than chant their battle cheers. De La Salle as a traditional European school would often sing more than chant. Our original style of cheering was very similar to most of the football clubs in Europe. Sadly La Salle does not sing several of its old battle songs. The old battle songs of the old De La Salle were much better than our present-day DLS Alma mater song.
With LSGH having gone coed, both the DLSU and DLS-CSB Animo Yell Command will enjoy a massive squad recruitment from both the Lasallian feeder schools of LSGH and DLSZ cheerleading programs.
It's always good when the ANIMO squad gets to have reinforcements from the Alumni Squad. The more the merrier, ask the yell commanders of LSGH, DLSZ, CSB and DLSL to join in with the cheering especially whenever DLSU is against Ateneo, UST, FEU & UP.
Did you know that... the traditional Go La Salle Battle Cheer that you often hear today was originally a Go La Salle Fight Song. Decades ago Lasallites would sing it rather than chant it. Occasionally our DLSU AN1MO Yell Command would still sing it during UAAP games.
