Ranatra Fusca Award: Delaware Valley HS, Milford, PA 
Opposites Distract, Division III
This team showed exceptional creativity by taking the judges behind-the-scenes and into its creative process during a skit-within-a-skit unfolding in real time that brought the audience on the roller coaster that all Odyssey teams experience. An interconnected cube system that was reconfigured into a variety of shapes served as the blank canvas upon which the team’s intricate scenery would come to life. As the skit began, two members drew freehand simplistic line drawings on two different settings. As the scenery changed, the lines flawlessly connected to create an entirely new illustration, rendering the judges speechless. The evolution of ideas seen through the ever-changing scenery mirrored the progression of an Odyssey team working towards a solution. This team exemplified the very essence of Odyssey through creativity, risk-taking and ingenuity.
