UMHB Cheer
The UMHB Cheer program promotes school spirit in support of the university's athletic teams, student body, faculty, staff, and alumni. Members of CRU Cheer strive to serve as elite representatives of the UMHB student body as well as ambassadors of the university throughout the community.
Cru Cheer combines two separate elements into its spirit squads. One team consists of athletes who can be seen on the sidelines of CRU football and basketball games as well as several events hosted in the community. The other represents the university at the competitive level, competing at collegiate cheerleading events throughout the year.
