North Carolina State has had time to assess some of its recent shortcomings, and with the bulk of the Atlantic Coast Conference schedule approaching, Sunday would be a good day for coach Kevin Keatts to get a look at his refreshed team. The Wolfpack will play their last non-conference game when hosting Rider at Raleigh, N.C. NC State (7-4), a loser of four of its past six games, has been off since a Dec. 14 loss at then-No. 10 Kansas. "When we don't have two or three of our good guys play well, it's a long night for us," Wolfpack coach Kevin Keatts said.
