The Our Lady of the Lake University (OLLU) Spirit squad has made school and national history, bringing home the 2025 NCA NAIA Game Day Division National Championship from Daytona Beach, Florida.

This marks a monumental first—OLLU is now the first NAIA program in the nation to win this title, the only San Antonio university to claim a championship in the Game Day Division, and just the second university in the city to ever win an NCA title.

“To be crowned the first-ever NCA NAIA National Champion in the Game Day Division is a monumental and historic achievement,” said Head Spirit Coach Crystal Brock. “We’ve gone from underdogs to trailblazers—leading with courage, resilience, and authenticity. This title represents every late night, every fall, and every triumph since our program launched in 2021.”

The Saints earned the top spot in the preliminary round with a score of 83.5 (after a two-point deduction). They followed it up with a cleaner routine in the finals—earning 83.433 and securing OLLU’s first national championship in cheer.

Coach Brock shared heartfelt thanks to her coaching staff and university community:

“This was only possible thanks to the tireless dedication of our assistant coaches, graduate assistants, and administrative leaders. Special thanks to those who have been with us since our 2021 debut—you’ve helped us build something incredible.”

With this championship, OLLU continues to raise the bar in collegiate spirit competition—proving that determination, leadership, and heart can build a legacy from the ground up.
