This market resolves based on the outcome of a Women's Basketball game between Maryland Eastern Shore Hawks and Youngstown State Penguins scheduled for March 24 at 6:30 PM ET. The winner is determined by the final score including any overtime periods, with the market resolving to the winning team's name.
Kalshi's market structure resolves YES for both possible outcomes (Maryland Eastern Shore win OR Youngstown State win), creating a logical contradiction that makes the market fundamentally unresolvable. Polymarket correctly structures the market as a binary outcome where exactly one team resolves as the winner.
Hero Tip:
Do not trade on Kalshi's version of this market. The resolution rules state the market resolves YES regardless of which team wins, meaning there is no NO outcome possible—this is a data integrity failure. Polymarket's market is the only tradeable version, as it properly resolves to either 'Maryland Eastern Shore Hawks' or 'Youngstown State Penguins' based on the final score.
Critical Divergence Points:
Kalshi:
Outlier: Market resolves YES if Maryland-Eastern Shore wins AND ALSO resolves YES if Youngstown St. wins, creating a logical impossibility where both outcomes trigger YES. This violates basic binary market structure. Key quote: 'If Maryland-Eastern Shore wins...then the market resolves to Yes. If Youngstown St. wins...then the market resolves to Yes.'
Polymarket:
Aligned with standard binary sports resolution: Market resolves to 'Maryland Eastern Shore Hawks' if they win or 'Youngstown State Penguins' if they win, with clear handling of postponement (market remains open) and cancellation (50-50 split). Key quote: 'If the Maryland Eastern Shore Hawks win, the market will resolve to Maryland Eastern Shore Hawks. If the Youngstown State Penguins win, the market will resolve to Youngstown State Penguins.'
