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 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. Br. John Lynam's pre-war LaS Rah! Rah! Boys, as well as his LSC and DLSC Yell Commanders up to Br. Bernard Oca's present DLSU Animo Squad has been continuously cheerleading for 97 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 battle songs such as "Men of La Salle!", "On Into The Fight - Green Archers Song", "Cheer! Cheer! For O'l De La Salle" and many more battle songs. 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 the "Hail to De La Salle" Alma Mater Song while doing the defiant raised, clenched fist "Hail! Hail! Hail!" salute has been performed since 1964. This famous Lasallian tradition was initiated by the DLSC cheerleading squad during the final buzzer of the Green Archers' only winless 1965 NCAA basketball season. It was the pain of having suffered a humiliating zero-win NCAA season that the DLSC Yell Commanders started the tradition of proudly singing the De La Salle Alma Mater Song with their distinct "Invictus La Salle" school spirit at the end of all their 1960's pre-martial law NCAA basketball matches. This popular DLS tradition showcases Lasallian school pride which was later emulated and presently also being done by other rival NCAA colleges and UAAP universities at the end of every game. Brother Malachy's DLS Alma Mater Song has been traditionally sung in every Lasallian gathering, event, varsity game, meeting, party, alumni activity, alumni wake, and alumni funeral. The 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. This widely popular DLS Alma Mater Hymn is presently being sung in several Lasallian schools worldwide as a battle song
