N.C. State’s trip to the NCAA tournament wasn’t a total loss for coach Kevin Keatts.

N.C. State lost to Seton Hall 94-83 in the first round of the NCAA tournament on March 15 but Keatts’ contract included several incentives for making the 68-team field after a two-year absence from the postseason by the program.
