The DLSU Animo Squad was originally known in its pre-war NCAA years as Brother 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 Squad, then in the 1980s as the DLSU Pep Squad until 2008, when it was renamed by Brother 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 in 1924 to 1926 with four LaS Rah! Rah! Boys / LSC Yell Command pioneers. Br. John Lynam's pre-war LaS Rah! Rah! Boys, as well his LSC and DLSC Yell Commanders up to Brother Bernard Oca's present DLSU Animo Squad has been continuously cheerleading for 95 years. The first members of the LaS, LSC, and DLSC cheerleading squad were all male until the later inclusion of female cheerleaders in the early 1970s. The DLSC cheerleading squad was the first spirit team in the NCAA and the UAAP to incorporate 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 battle songs such as "Men of La Salle", "On Into The Fight - Green Archer Song", "Cheer! Cheer! For O'l De La Salle Victory Song", "De La Salle Song", "Fighting Song", "Onward Green Archers," "For The Green", "Marching Song", and several more cheers. 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 tradition of singing Brother Stephen Malachy and Brother Bonaventure Richard's "Hail to De La Salle" Alma Mater Song (composed in 1961) after every Lasallian gathering, event, and varsity game while doing the defiant raised, clenched fist "HAIL!, HAIL!, HAIL!" salute has been performed since 1964. This famous Lasallian tradition was defiantly initiated by the DLSC cheerleading squad during the final buzzer of the Green Archers' only winless 1965 NCAA basketball season. At that historical moment, the DLSC Yell Command proudly showcased the "Invictus La Salle!" indestructible school spirit. De La Salle College started the tradition of proudly singing the De La Salle Alma Mater Song at the end of all its then-NCAA matches which were later followed by other rival NCAA colleges and UAAP universities.
