The HillRaisers: Keeping the Spirit Alive

The HillRaisers: Keeping the Spirit Alive

The HillRaisers — the university’s official spirit group — was founded in fall 2007 by students who decided that St. Edward’s could use a little boost in school spirit.

The HillRaisers strive to have a presence at all home athletic events. Members of the executive board volunteer to work spirit stations where they offer face painting and sell HillRaiser T-shirts for $5. The HillRaisers recently started spreading spirit off the hilltop with bus trips to away games at rival schools.

How do you join the HillRaisers? Just show up 10 minutes before a game, purchase a T-shirt (if you don’t already have one) and join fellow HillRaisers in the crowd. As a HillRaiser, you’ll be among the most spirited and enthusiastic students on campus who support St. Edward’s University events and traditions throughout the year.
