What the contract measures
The saved source is a Kalshi event for the West Virginia vs Central Florida women's college volleyball match, originally scheduled for October 18, 2026 at 1:00 PM EDT [1]. The rules state that if X wins the match, the market resolves to Yes [1]. The saved data contains two markets from this event: one that resolves on whether Central Florida wins and one that resolves on whether West Virginia wins [1].
The rules also cover postponement. If the game is postponed but begins within 2 days of its originally scheduled start, the market stays open and resolves on the official final result. If the game is cancelled or does not start within 2 days, the market resolves to a fair price [1]. Readers should check these conditions before comparing prices, since they determine what a Yes share ultimately pays.
The market data lists an end date of October 20, 2026 at 17:00 UTC for both markets [1]. The source excerpt itself gives no listed end time, so this date should be read as the provider's recorded close time, not as the game's start time or a confirmed resolution date.
Reading the snapshot
The saved observation is timestamped October 17, 2026 at 03:00 UTC, and the source was retrieved at 04:52 UTC the same day [1]. Prices from that observation are historical snapshots and may not reflect current quotes.
At that observation, the Central Florida Yes price was 0.495 and the West Virginia Yes price was 0.485 [1]. These are snapshot prices, not executable quotes or verified probabilities. The two Yes prices do not sum to 1, but that gap alone does not show an arbitrage opportunity, because it does not account for fees, spreads, or execution conditions. The saved data also does not explain why the prices stood where they did.
Volume is not included in this summary, and volume would not indicate liquidity or trader counts in any case.
The sample is complete for this event: both saved markets were included, and the sample is not marked partial [1]. The sample covers only this single saved Kalshi event, so it says nothing about other providers or other outcomes.
What remains uncertain
The evidence does not include a current price, a listed end time in the source text, or any post-observation information about the game. It also does not establish how the official result will be determined beyond the rule wording quoted above. Because the source notes that the market may close early if the event occurs [1], the actual closing time could differ from the listed end date.

Saved Oct 17, 2026 UTCOverview
This PredictPedia entry covers a Kalshi contract on a women's college volleyball match between West Virginia and Central Florida. The match is scheduled for October 18, 2026 at 1:00 PM EDT [1]. The contract rules state that if the team named X wins the match, the market resolves to Yes [1]. The rules use the placeholder X, while the market titles identify the teams: one market is titled "Central Florida wins" and the other "West Virginia wins" [1]. The Kalshi event data was observed at 2026-10-17T03:00:06Z and retrieved shortly afterward, so the saved prices describe that earlier observation and should not be read as live figures. The contract rules also address postponement and cancellation. If the game is postponed but begins within 2 days of its originally scheduled start time, the market remains open and resolves based on the official final result [1]. If the game is cancelled or does not start within 2 days of its originally scheduled start, the market resolves to a fair price [1]. The rules also say the market will close and expire early if the event occurs [1]. The listed end time is not supplied in the provider's rules, although the saved market data includes an end date field of 2026-10-20T17:00:00Z. That field should be read as a provider data point, not as the date on which the match will be decided. Kalshi states that it is not affiliated, associated, authorized, endorsed by, or in any way officially connected with the NCAA, and that trademarks and brand names belong to their respective owners [1]. The two Wikipedia background pages retrieved for this topic cover the Florida State football team and the UCF Knights football program [2][3]. They do not describe the volleyball teams in this match, so they do not explain the contract's terms.
Why It Matters
The contract measures whether a specific team wins one scheduled women's college volleyball match. Under the rules, the Central Florida market is tied to a Central Florida win and the West Virginia market is tied to a West Virginia win [1]. The contract wording focuses on the official outcome of the match at the scheduled start, with specific fallback rules if the game is postponed, cancelled, or delayed beyond two days [1]. Readers should check the full rules on the provider's page before relying on any particular interpretation, because the excerpt used here is a summary of those rules.
